A quiet bay on the arid southern half of Skyros, south of Kalamitsa, with nothing ashore but scrub and rock.

Practical

Sand and seagrass, 7 m; a sailor found it calm and sheltered (Grecosailor). No facilities. Southern Skyros is the range of the semi-feral Skyrian ponies, so you may see them on the hillsides.

Solitude on the wild south coast
