Varko
Varko is a small anchorage spot on the eastern shore of the Amvrakikos Gulf, tucked within the Municipality of Palairos in Aitoloakarnania. You drop the hook here and find yourself in quiet, unspoiled surroundings with the rugged hills of western Greece rising behind you. The nearby monastery of Agios Dimitrios is worth exploring if you head ashore by dinghy.
