WHERE TO SWIM
PISO GIALΙA BEACH
Great fun beach between Hora and Stenies. It is quite popular. There is a beach bar and a few surrounding taverns. If you are not comfortable climbing steps up and down- this beach is not for you.
ACHLA BEACH
The Achla beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in Greece and for a good reason since it is much more than a beach. In fact, it is also an unusually rich environment with impressive plantain trees.
TIS GRIAS TO PIDIMA BEACH
The main attraction is this15-meter high rock, creating a unique scenery. It is a pretty steep walk down a cliff with a railing. If you are not comfortable doing a hike like this it is probably not the beach for you.
APOTHIKES BEACH
A huge deep sandy beach leads to the sea which due to the rocks is ideal for diving and snorkeling. A sea mask is useful as the seabed is pretty interesting.
NEIMPORIO BEACH
Easily accessible beach in the center of Chora. No stairs and very close to many restaurants and snack bars.
GOLDEN BEACH
Gorgeous beach with gold soft sand. Great beach bar and many lounge chairs. Very many restaurants and bars and very close to Gavrio
