A beautiful pristine area shared by 3 countries. These lakes are shared by Albania, FYROM and Greece. A totally different kind of vacation to come in touch of nature as it truly is as well as the people who live there!
3. Cave of Dragon (Spilia tou drakou)

Reviewed By ChrisNokkentved - Espergaerde, Denmark
We read about this attraction and made it a high point of our visit in the historic part of Kastoria. The cave was an experience as speleologists have made it safe and accessible to the public. Inside the lighting enriches the experience of the incredible cascading stalactites and stalagmites with small ponds bringing color in the calcium palace. A guiding audio system guides and highlights in some parts of the cave. Only drawback was that quests have limited time as our exhalations and CO2 destroys the interior. So take some flashless photos fast

We had a wonderful few hours exploring the Island. From the moment you start walking across on the bridge (walking only) you are delighted by the beauty of the small Prespa Lake with the reeds, birds and mountains surrounding. Once on the Island you can explore the beautiful surrounds with old churches and basilica, cows, sheep, goats, rambling old stone cottages and incredible views from the top of the Island. It was very quite when we were there at about 6pm in Summer. The light was fantastic for photos.

It was the first time that we saw brown bears free into the woods. The staff of Arktouros works there as volunteer. They are really informed about bears so we have the chance to broaden our knowledge. They take care of bears and when bears are ready enough they are left in their natural habitat. It is impressive how they protect and love these animals.

It was a great chance to travel to Florina. Florina is a beautiful town. Sakoulevas river passes through it. It's a wonderful place to walk around, take pictures and enjoy your coffee in the morning or your drink at night.
8. Kastoria Aquarium

Reviewed By savrenas - Thessaloniki, Greece
A small but very educational and interesting aquarium few metres outside the centre of town with an easy place to park your car. There is a good variety of fish species and the visit is very educational. Together with the cave of dragon is a must place to visit.
