Orkos & Lakkos Beaches (Lakka)

39° 14.2′ N · 20° 8.6′ E

Two pebble coves with clear blue water on the north coast just east of Lakka Bay. Both are reached by an olive- and cypress-lined lane from the village, and both are quieter than the bay beaches.

Practical

Coordinate is Orkos (Paxos Map), about a 10-minute walk from Lakka; Lakkos is further east (39.23458N 20.14740E). Both face north, so they are exposed to the prevailing NW breeze and swell. Walk or dinghy over from a Lakka anchorage in calm conditions.
