What to do in Kera beach? Are there any attractions or entertainments in region?
Extremes can be moderate or excessive, so if you are a fan of the first type, than Kera beach welcomes you, offering kite and windsurfing. If on the contrary, it is not your kind of activity, we recommend you to find another beach, since the presence of lots of kite surfers on water can have a negative impact on the comfort of your leisure.
