OpenStreetMap maps the pharmacy of D.G. Tsakalis (Δ.Γ. Τσακαλης) at this position, about 700 m from the town yacht quay, and the Kapaxis pharmacy (Καπαξής) at 37.71557, 24.05400 a block further north-west. A third pharmacy is mapped at 37.71698, 24.05446 near the town supermarkets. Greek pharmacies keep shop hours and rotate a duty (efimereuon) pharmacy for evenings and weekends; the rota is posted on each pharmacy door. Hours were not verified. Greek pharmacists can advise on minor ailments and sell many medicines over the counter. From Olympic Marine it is about 2 km, so combine with a provisioning run into town.
