Although the beach itself may not be particularly remarkable, the surrounding old town is truly a sight to behold. With its stunning architecture and charming atmosphere, it's easy to lose yourself in the beauty of this Greek gem. So while the beach may not be the main attraction, it's still worth a visit for the chance to explore the town's many hidden treasures.
