Information from the sources listed below

A quiet stop at Cape Kanistro

The tourism authority's guide links the church to the view from Cape Kanistro and includes it on a route from Paliouri. This description makes no claim that Hla entered the church and does not rely on unpublished hours.

Plan the route from Paliouri

The official guide places the church about 8.7 km from Paliouri on a sightseeing route. Use its stopping-point code as a reference, then check road conditions and your available time rather than automatically adding it to a crowded day.

Enjoy the place respectfully

Make the coastal view and church photograph the focus of the stop. If the doors are closed or a service is taking place, enjoy the exterior; the source provides no confirmed interior opening hours.
