About this beach
Nestled in a sheltered cove on the northwest coast, surrounded by two lush green hills and elm trees (karagatsia in Greek). The beach is entirely sandy, though the water is deeper near shore. Its wind-sheltered position makes it ideal for calm swimming.

Questions & Answers
Is Karagatsia suitable for children?
The water deepens near shore, so it's better for confident swimmers. Kalopigado or Alikes are better for toddlers.
Are there facilities at Karagatsia?
No beach bars or sunbeds — it's a natural, uncommercialized beach. Bring your own supplies.
