Similar to many beaches in the bay, the surface water here is warmer, and the bottom is predominantly sandy. The water remains shallow for a considerable distance from the shore. This makes it an excellent beach for kids, as the shallow water extends far out. My son, who prefers to snorkel only where he can stand, enjoyed snorkeling over long distances here.
The Peramas Geras windmill is located just outside the Papados settlement of Geras, directly facing the Surlaga tannery. Historically, it was used to grind oak for the tannery's purposes.
This exquisite beach is a haven for those seeking refuge and relaxation. Thank you, Petalidi and Mom, for this delightful experience. Good morning and blessings to you. 🌼
Peaceful location, the beach is pleasant and serene. A little distant from Mytilini, but two buses run daily. However, from Thermi (6 Km away), there are more frequent bus services available.
Upon arrival at the beach, we were charged a nominal fee of 1€ per person and 0.50€ per child, which we found to be quite reasonable. To keep ourselves active and entertained, we made use of the beach volleyball equipment. It was an invigorating way to spend an afternoon in the heart of the city, right by the beach. One of the best features of this beach was that the use of umbrellas and sunbeds was included in the entrance fee. However, we were informed that we needed to order some drinks or food to avail of this facility. We opted for an iced coffee, which was priced at a reasonable 2€. The water at the beach was crystal clear, but we noticed that the beach was rocky and not sandy. There were changing rooms and showers available for our convenience. Although the toilets were a bit cramped, we managed to use them comfortably. The door opening inside the toilet was a bit of a hassle, but it was a minor inconvenience. We were pleased to find a playground and shaded tables under the trees, which provided a perfect spot to relax and unwind. The beach was also equipped with a lifeguard tower and a bar, which was an added bonus. Overall, we had a pleasant experience at this beach and would recommend it to others.
