Panagia Islet & Krioneri Beach (Parga)
39° 16.9′ N · 20° 24.1′ E
The rocky islet with the white chapel of the Virgin that sits in Parga's town bay, with a small ruined fort, opposite Krioneri, the town's main beach. Its clear, rocky shallows make a good snorkel from the dinghy.
Practical
Wikipedia: Krioneri is Parga's main beach, with the small island of the Virgin Mary across the bay; OSM maps a fort on the islet (39.28134N 20.40163E). Snorkel the islet's rocky edges in calm water, keeping clear of the constant water-taxi traffic. Piso (back) Krioneri beach is just east (OSM 39.28198N 20.40699E). Note: this inventory item was listed as 'Agia Island'. Agia is actually a village inland of Sarakiniko; the islet off Parga is Panagia.
