Castel Selino (Φρούριο Σελίνου) is a hilltop Venetian/Ottoman fortress ruin overlooking Paleochora and the Libyan Sea — ideal for dramatic coastal panoramas, ruined stone textures, and town-to-sea compositions. Reachable on a short climb from town; limited facilities and no formal entry fee. Best at golden hour (sunset for warm backlight on the walls; sunrise for calmer sea and soft light). Weekdays and early mornings reduce crowds; expect uneven paths—sturdy shoes recommended.
