Elinda Bay (Chios)
38° 23.4′ N · 25° 59.4′ E
A lovely sandy cove on the west coast, protected from the NW and popular with locals on Sundays; also a known dive site.
Practical
Anchor close to the beach in about 7-10 m — the beach shelves steeply (Grecosailor anchored at 7 m on sand/seagrass; CruisersWiki at 10 m). Looks well protected from NW. Water can be murky and greenish at times; seaweed in other parts of the bay. Greeka lists Elinda as a dive spot.
