Press ON button LONG ( hold)  to start or stop the stove.

It will take a minute or two , give it time to start, be patient.

It burns until it has reached the Room temperature setpoint, then switch off until room has cooled down below -3° from Setooint , then turn on automatically.

To change Settings press on switch (short), Display will light up, then use error keys to navigate and SET to select.

Tip: After a long time of burning the pellets form a crater inside the hooper and no pellets fall into the stove. You can even out or refill the pellets in the hopper before you go to bed so it will not stop burning.

 MAPS WHERE IS WHAT

Neochori

 

West Mani

 

Beaches:

SAND:
– Kalogria Stoupa. Fine sand below Stoupa camping, Many restaurants, sundbeds umbrellas. AVOID MK in the middle, very expensive, unless you want luxury bed.

Stoupa Main beach promenade

  • Many restaurants, some offer free sunbeds with consumption

Sand / gravel mix

  • Pantazi beach Agios Nikolaos, Sunbeds near beach bar closer to Agios are free with some drinks. In the middle there are no sunbeds.
  • Definia, Darker Sand/ gravel , most quiet beach, you have to walk down a bit from the main road parking., in Summer has a Kiosk for drinks and snacks. In other times there are some path down even if closed. May have some topless or nude bathers, but usually not many people there.

Round stones

  • Foneas Beach, is very picturesque, with a huge rock in the middle of the beach that you can swim around or even dive into. However there are only round stones . usually not busy. It is in a sharp bend towards Kardamily, just few 100 meters after Delfinia beach

 

ROCK / CLIFF / Jump

  • Gnospi, at the hikining trail between Stoupa and Agios Nikolaos, at the beginning of the village. It has a ladder to get safely out again. And a rock jumping spot
  • Selenitsa – at the end of Agios Dimitiros toward Trahila, just after the last house there is a trail down. Be careful, need to be sure footed and good shoes. Down there is a fantastic area of smooth even rock plateus, and a cave that extends I believe 2 km into the mountain. Do not enter the Cave without caving equipment, people got lost in there. There are places where you can jump 3,5 or more meters from the rocks.

BE CAREFUL!!! IF THERE ARE WAVES, THE CURRENT WILL NOT LET YOU GET OUT AGAIN!! THERE IS UNDERPULL CURRENT! DO NOT GET INTO WATER!!! DANGER FOR DROWNING AND INJURIES.

 

THIS AREA IS NOT SAFE FOR KIDS!  If you enter the cave you will not see anything after few meters. If your light goes out… you are lost. It is easy to trip and fall deep here. No fences. Be warned. But as an adult on the right day you can have a lot of fun.

 

Wildlife

You will hear the Jackals howl at night like wolves. There is a huge population of Jackals here.  The Jackals are usually super shy and are not aggressive. They will not attack humans under normal circumstances and run away. If you drive around at night you may encounter a few.

If you have pets with you, bring them inside at night.

Wild boar

There are wild boar around. Usually they don’t want to be seen and are shy, so youw ill not see them in 99% of the cases, but in case you do encounter one, do not walk towards them! Female wild baor can become aggressive when they try to protect their piglets., just slowly walk away backward, but don’t turn around.

 

Hawks

There are a few Hawks around. Let them amaze you watching them use the thermic and glide endlessly without moving the wings.

Eagles

The are 2-3 real Eagles here from time to time. They live up in Taygetos Mountains and visit here on search for prey.

 

Snakes

In Late Spring  (March- April- May) snakes are trying to warm themselves up on stones in the nature. They are shy, and usually disappear when they hear you so you won’t ever see them. Some of them are poisonous, and dangerous for pets that run around in the fields and charge the snakes. Most venomous snakes have a zig zag pattern on the back. If you get bitten by a snake seek medical help for an antiserum. Even if it is usually not deadly , snake bites untreated can cause bad infections.

 

Insects/ Lizards

The Mani has still very pristine nature. This comes with that there are all kinds of insects here. I have seen rare insects like a walking stick, and Lizards. If it has rained, sometimes you can see massive amounts of millipedes. This is normal in this area. They are harmless , however they smell bad if they die or you step onto them.

The only kinds to watch out for are scorpions ( a bite hurts bad, but unless allergic it is not deadly) and Centipedes. They have only few legs ( around 70 pair) and distict segments of body. They can bite painful as well- they are mildly poisonous, unless you are allergic is like a wasp sting.
