35° 45.4′ N · 27° 12.6′ E

What a yacht can and cannot get in Diafani: a small mini market and public water taps, but no fuel anywhere in the north of the island.

Practical

Pinned on the mini market (convenience store) on the Diafani front (OSM). A second convenience store is at 35.7557, 27.2098 (OSM). MarinaTips lists only a restaurant, a shop and the anchorage for Port Diafani (updated Sept 2026), with no water, electricity or fuel on the quay. OpenStreetMap maps a public water point just east of the village (35.7554, 27.2140), useful for jerry cans. Wikivoyage: 'There are no filling stations operating north of Aperi, as of 2025.' Arrive with full diesel tanks; the nearest fuel is on the roads around Pigadia (see Pigadia Fuel Stations). Medical help: Olympos Health Centre, +30 22450 51201 (aegeanislands.gr). Olympos has the area's only grocery mini market of any size (OSM).
