Kokkino Chorio is located at a higher altitude and it has kept its traditional architectural style even more so than other villages with its narrow streets, beautiful house gates and terracota tiled pitched roofs. A group of cisterns, built in a sloping field, gather the rainwater, an interesting example of local architecture, whilst at the same time are contributing to a better management of water resources in the area.

Above Kokkino Chorio one can see the strangely shaped hill of Drapanokefala or Calapodha (named so during the Venetian occupation). The coastline northwest of the village is an extremely interesting place for a stroll due to the ground formation and the caves, such as the cave of Petsi (or Karavotopos). Another cave, called Katalimata, located at the centre of the village, is also an interesting place to visit.

At cape Drapanos, approximately 10m under water, is the impressive Elephant cave, an area 60mx60m full of stalactites and stalagmites of various shapes and colours. (Information from the website of Vamos municipality)
