Mytikas of Aetoloakarnania is built on a pointed piece of land protruding into the waters of the Ionian Sea, on the west coast of Acarnania, between Astakos and Vonitsa and is considered as a unique travel suggestion for those seeking tranquility and relaxation. Its name owes it to its morphology since it is essentially a "MYTI" entering the sea.
The village is built on the foreshore with homes and businesses literally bordering the sea, while a main paved road connects the entrance of the village with its harbor and is ideal for walking, while the afternoon in summer months, it is forbidden for vehicles to pass, so kids get out on bikes, giving the village a playful vibrancy.
Starting from the picturesque Mitika one can visit by boat the islands Kastos and Kalamos or arrive by ferry to Skorpios, Meganissi and Ithaca. By car and only 40 minutes away, you can easily access Lefkada with the incredible and world wide famous beaches.
Mytikas is ideal for relaxing holidays on the turquoise waters of the Ionian Sea. Being a seaside place it offers visitors the opportunity to enjoy amazing seafood and fish, while the tradition of animal husbandry ensures delicious meat that only a few places in Greece offer!
The yacht owners are perhaps the only ones who know this place so well, since the existence of a harbor made the settlement more than a pit-stop during their travels in the Ionian islands.

In the Odessy Homer refers to it as ‘Karnos ‘ that eventually became Kalamos.It is mountainous and full of vegetation of pine trees and lots of herbs like thyme,sage, oregano.In the east side the pine forest extends from the side of the mountain to the beach.
