Just south of Faliraki is the small pebble-beached cove of LADHIKO or Ladiko where many scenes from the noted war film The Guns of Navarone were filmed. It is amusingly dubbed the Anthony 'Queen' bay by owners of the many excursion boats that visit. The 'Queen' title is in homage to the film's star actor Anthony Quinn, who once bought some property near here. More prosaically named Ladhiko or Ladiko, the cliffs are huge and vertiginous but there are only rocks available for sunbathing and there are sharp underwater stones too, so it's not ideal for children. Above the bay is a small taverna. Another small sandy bay down a nearby dirt track has borrowed the name and cashed in on the visitors with some sun beds and caravan cafe.
