Anchorage off the north end of Perissa's long black-sand beach, on the south side of the Mesa Vouno headland.
Practical
Grecosailor: sand, 5 m; anchor in front of the channel buoys. A small concrete dinghy dock lies against the mountainside. The wind picked up in the evening during the reporter's stay. Shelter from N-NW is reasonable, but the bay is open to the SE and S. Ashore: tavernas, mini markets, dive centres and the trailhead up Mesa Vouno to Ancient Thera.
Best for
Overnight base for the Ancient Thera hike and a beach dinner
Season
N-NW winds; exposed SE-S
