This secluded beach is accessible by boat, with both an easy and a challenging route available. The latter involves navigating a side road near Queens Beach Bar, though it may prove too strenuous for some. For most visitors, the ideal option is to catch one of the tourist boats departing from either the main port or Therma, which offer multiple trips to this idyllic spot throughout the day. Alternatively, it's also possible to arrange for drop-off and pickup via boat from Ammos Main Beach Bar.

This camping spot is a true gem. The beach is adorned with soft sand, and there are plenty of shaded areas to relax in. The added bonus of a natural spring near the beach for drinking water is a refreshing touch. If you're up for a bit of a hike, a canyon with serene water pools is only a 30-minute walk away. The tranquil atmosphere and pristine surroundings make this a must-visit destination. Our one-week stay was not enough, and we are already planning our return.
