Avlaki Beach

Avlaki Beach is a small, secluded beach known for its unique natural characteristics. The beach is composed of small to medium-sized polished rocks, making it a picturesque spot that's great for photography. The beach is also noted for its crystal clear water, which adds to its charm. The beach is accessible via a paved path or stairs that lead down from a parking area. It's located at the end of a short gravel road, past a local fish tavern. However, reaching the beach may require some effort as it involves driving on narrow local roads up and down hills. Despite its secluded location, Avlaki Beach can offer a quiet and peaceful experience. It's not uncommon to find visitors enjoying sunbathing or watching the waves crash in. However, potential visitors should be aware that the beach can experience strong currents and waves, particularly on windy days. As such, it may not be the best spot for swimming on such days.
