Where palms grow

The provincial tourism office identifies the Eksera Valley and valleys between the Lindos and Bozan headlands among the palm habitats. Their concentration along particular watercourses highlights a landscape beyond the shore.

Observing them

Choose a public route with a local guide. View the palms without collecting leaves or fruit or descending into narrow stream beds. Including the surrounding terrain in a photograph helps to show the habitat.
