User reviews
"The beach is absolutely stunning with its rocky shoreline. It is located on the less windy side of the island. However, parking can be a bit challenging due to limited space. It's a perfect spot for swimming, but be cautious of a few metal bars that protrude from the sand near the water's edge. Some of them are only a few centimeters above the surface, so please be aware."
Yaris Delacroix
"This is my absolute favorite beach in Karpathos! The beach itself is stunning, with crystal-clear and warm water. There are also a few bars where you can grab a drink. Don't forget to bring your diving goggles and explore the sea - you'll be amazed by the variety of beautiful fish you'll encounter."
