4 Frustrating

Beware! The beach where my unfortunate cousin fell victim to a weever sting (mid-September) left him writhing in agony. He's no weakling, mind you, but the excruciating pain ruined his entire holiday. Apparently, these pesky weevils are prevalent in this region of the Aegean. So, unless you fancy a trip to the emergency room, I'd suggest you steer clear of this treacherous shore.

The beach in Ikaria is undoubtedly the finest one around. A short, scenic stroll of just 10 minutes will lead you to the sandy shores, where crystal-clear waters await you. You'll be mesmerized by the stunning views along the way, and the beach itself is nothing short of spectacular. The water is so transparent that you can see right through it. It's a perfect spot to unwind and soak up the sun.
