Enjoy a refreshing swim in the harbor followed by a delightful coffee experience at the bar/restaurant, accompanied by perfect music and an inviting atmosphere. The beach offers a serene and tranquil setting, allowing for maximum relaxation. Although the journey to reach it may involve a long and meandering road, rest assured that it is safe and well-maintained. Taking the time to explore this side of the island in the morning is truly worthwhile.

The village is a picturesque and peaceful place. You can either access the beach through the stairs at the harbor for a refreshing swim, or if the weather is calm, get creative and find a perfect spot to jump off the breathtaking rock formations. Additionally, make sure to try the taverna closest to the harbor, even though it may not be marked on Google maps. The drive to the village offers stunning views, and if you're lucky, you might catch a glimpse of dolphins in the distance. However, it's important to note that this is not a glossy, tourist-focused resort.

This beach is located in a charming little village that boasts a picturesque port and rocky surroundings. There is a ladder available for easy access to the water, which is clean and refreshing. The route leading to the beach from Armenisti is absolutely stunning. Additionally, there is a cafe where you can enjoy a beverage while taking in the breathtaking view of the sea.

The village near Papa lighthouse is incredibly picturesque. Although the beach itself is compact, there are charming little coves in the surrounding vicinity just waiting to be discovered.
