Soaked in Lyndian atmosphere, this nautically themed, 16th-century sea captain's house is perfect for a juice or coffee on your way down from the Acropolis. Grab a pew in the pebble-mosaic courtyard and admire the fabulous carved reliefs, or peer into the ground floor, restored with period furniture to display the lifestyle of its original owners.
