Opposite of Vourkari you may see the peninsula of Agia Irini, the name of the chapel there, which is particularly an important archaeological site. There were discovered the impressive clays, female figurines, "Kores" ("daughters"), which you may admire in the archaeological museum of the island. A little further, equally of great interest are the peninsula of Koka, an old abandoned industrial area, and the famous "Steno of Lampros Katsonis", which took its name from the fact that when Lambros Katsonis was blocked by the Turks in bay of St. Nicholas he managed to escape with the help of Tziotes by passing his boat with wood, rollers and pulleys from the narrow isthmus of Koka, coming again back to the sea.
