Agios Prokopios is a hot spot for tourists. Apart from the long sandy beaches, the village itself has a small church. Not far from it is a resort place by the name of Stelida. The "Red Lake" is another attraction near the village; flocks of herons are known to use the spot as a resting place before continuing their migratory flight to Africa.[3]
