  • Reading reviews we expected a gem of a beach. The road to the beach was interesting, certainly doable with any car so don’t be discouraged. Upon arrival you’re greeted by someone that will help you...

  • Nice clean and quiet beach. Some off road to acces. No problem for a normal car.
  • It's a sandy shallow beach were careta careta tortoise lay eggs. Thus the beach is protected by officials, there are rules that apply, like no ambrellas, playing is allowed within a few meters of the shore and other rules. Most of the nests are marked and can be easily avoided but not all can be marked as there are new nests almost every night, thus the beach is closed from sundown to 7am. There are some taverns by the beach and some of them offer free sunbeds.
  • Lovely and calm beach. Turtle's nests everywhere
  • Beautiful beach to spend a day out... Snorkeling is a must on farr the left part of the beach . First area of the beach the right part looking to the sea the entrance in the sea with stones middle part is perfect for little one with sand and few stones And for a wild and extreme filling last part far left you can find a lot of stones and fish (a must for snorkeling) and an old man with a lot of beautiful stories and a place what look beautiful it is a must to be seen
  • Fabulous beach! Extraordinarily beautiful. The road is a little tricky, but not as bad as some of the reviews make out. We took the less windy road, without out the Barbagiannis' Table viewpoint. The first stretch is tarmacked, then it is mainly bumpy concrete, and a bit of loose gravelly stuff at the end. It is narrow and two way, but generally there is enough room to pass if both drivers take it slow. It is worth the drive, in any case!
