Agiofili Beach

Jessa Kaeli
This beach is truly a gem with its crystal clear waters. However, it tends to be quite crowded and bustling with activity. Be prepared to shell out some cash, as parking costs 7 euros and renting an umbrella and beds comes to 15 euros. If you're looking to save some money, it's best to bring your own beach equipment. Although the road leading to the beach is a bit rough, a regular car should suffice - there's no need for a 4x4.
