Asteria Swimming Platforms (Vaporia)
37° 26.9′ N · 24° 56.9′ E · approximate
A small municipal sea-swimming spot of concrete platforms and ladders under the Vaporia mansions, a few hundred metres east of the harbour. It is the townspeople's beach.
Practical
Coordinate is approx: it is the unnamed rocky shore below Vaporia on OSM. YACHT (Aug 2025) says it is a few hundred metres east of the harbour. It has swim-platform access to deep, clear water. Walk there; no dinghy landing. Exposed to the meltemi swell from the north-east, so it is calmest in the morning.
Best for
A town swim without moving the boat
