Agiofili Beach

38° 36.3′ N · 20° 36.8′ E

A small white-pebble cove under green cliffs just south-east of Vasiliki, with luminous water that drops off fast for snorkelling.

Practical

Greeka: partly organised with a summer canteen, no natural shade; reached by a rough mostly-dirt road then a 500 m walk, or by water taxi from Vasiliki (about 20 minutes). my-sea notes afternoon waves and lots of fish. A yacht can anchor off in calm mornings; the afternoon thermal makes it uncomfortable later.
