North of the village of Karavás, the coastline projects half a mile seaward in a flat-fronted promontory nearly 2 miles wide, with a sea cliff rising in places to 20 or 25 feet. This is the front of a bed of sandy limestone, rather higher and drier than most of the coast land west of Kerynia, and more like the similar plateau on which Kerynia itself is built. It runs back southward, rising gently for about 2 miles, till it is dominated by a spur of the North Range west of the villages of Motídhes and Palaiósophos. It is bounded on the east by the Kalembóri River, which comes down past Phtérycha and Elaiá, reaches the sea at Apóstolos Andréas, and is intersected near its eastern edge by the parallel stream from Motídhes and Palaiósophos which runs out in the eastern horn of the promontory.
