1. Platys Ammos Beach


Experience the untouched beauty of Platys Ammos Beach, situated across from Afales. Accessible only by boat, this stunning beach combines golden sand with dazzling white pebbles, making it one of Greece's most captivating shorelines. The azure waters and towering cliffs offer ample shade and breathtaking views, but caution is advised due to potential landslides.
