Agios Stefanos Islet Anchorage (Chios)

38° 18.7′ N · 25° 57.9′ E

Anchorage in the lee of a rocky islet off Chios's west coast, flat water thanks to the nearby shore.

Practical

7-10 m on sand and kelp, good holding; very flat and very clear (Grecosailor). Neighbouring Agios Sostis islets (38°18'41.8"N 25°57'27.7"E): 5 m sand/seagrass with excellent holding between the two islets — the south cove did not hold; north swell is reduced here.

Best for

Clear-water swim and snorkel on the west coast
