Drapanos is a small traditional village in the Apokoronas on the Georgioupoli - Kefalas - Drapanos - Kokino Chorio route. The small village with its white houses is set in the woods and in the back are the mountains. In the village of Drapanos is the Agia Pandeleimonas church. Nearby the village is a church which is built in a cave, called the Agios Ioannis church. In the village there is a supermarket, a taverna and a kafenion. Drapanos is not far away from the Villages of Kefalas and the sea side village of Almirida.

Just outside the village Drapanos is a large number of Venetian "sternes" or wells. If you come from the direction of Kokkino Chorio and drive through Drapanos you first pass the church (on the right hand side) and then past a house that is painted orange and purple (on the left), and after that you pass the Drapanos exit sign and drive out of the village. If you keep following the road then after 1.1 kilometers there is a path on the left. You will pass a number of such paths before you get there, so you may have to look around a bit before you find the right path. I have made a picture of the path so you know what it looks like. If you follow the path for about 100 meter you will come to the Venetian sources. In these wells there is still water and there are goldfish swimming in them. In this environment the Venetians grew grapes for wine making and if you look around you will see that the landscape is divided into terraces.
