The Diros Caves (also known as Vlychada or Glyfada Cave) are a system of water-filled caverns in Diros Bay explored by small boat through underground lake passages lined with stalactites and stalagmites. First systematically explored in 1949 by speleologists Ioannis and Anna Petrocheilos, the cave opened to the public in 1967 and is one of the most-visited natural attractions in the Mani.

Alepotrypa Cave is a separate, mostly dry cave about 220 metres from the Diros Caves boat-tour site, discovered in 1958. It is one of the largest Neolithic burial sites in Europe, occupied roughly 5300-3200 BC, and now houses the Museum of Neolithic Civilization of Diros rather than offering boat tours.
