A quieter set of clear-water coves about 1 km past the main Santa Maria beach, at the north-east tip of the Naoussa peninsula.

Practical

Greeka: the quieter alternative to crowded Santa Maria in July and August. The Common Wanderer: clear calm coves, sunbeds from EUR 20 with a small free section to the right; Katsounas taverna is nearby. OpenStreetMap also maps Mikri Santa Bar on the beach.
