It is a sandy beach, more than 3 kilometers long with crystal clear blue sea. It is well organized in parts, and, being that long, it suits to all tastes. The families usually choose the calmer parts, the young people and couples prefer the most remote and less crowded, the British and German tourists go everywhere, the locals choose the parts close to …the fish taverns, so that they enjoy a good meal after a good swim, there are children playing with the sand and jet-skis in the sea. The left end of the beach, with the small coves, the caves and the rocks is chosen by those preferring to swim in a more scenic landscape. Being that long, the beach never seems to be packed, as there is enough space for all.
If you are fan of golf, the Golf Center is close to the beach, via the coastal road.
For health problems, a local Medical Center is available in the nearby town of Afantou (2 kilometers far from the beach to the Northwest), where you will also find a Police Station and a Post Office.
Access to the beach of Afantou is easy by public buses running regularly, by taxi (a taxi station is available at the town), and by rented or private car and motorbikes. |
