It is located in the southern part of Etoloakarnania having as natural boundaries river Evinos from the east, the Gulf of Patras from the south, Mount Arakinthos from the north and finally the city of Messolonghi from the west.
In a historical perspective, Evinochori is inextricably linked in a cultural, customary and geopolitical way both with ancient Calydon and the Sacred City of Messolonghi, all three connected with a common course throughout the centuries.
Louros is one of the best beaches of Etoloakarnania prefecture. It is located 17 km southwest of Neochori and is half an hour away from Messolonghi.

The trip to Louros Beach is pretty fascinating. There, one can encounter cows and pigs or even wild horses that proudly enjoy their walk in the nature. Louros is definitely a landscape of wild natural beauty, or one could as well describe it as a unique natural zoo.
