Zogaki North Beach
- 37°23'17.8"N 24°27'13.9"E
- Seabed Type: Sand
Anchorage
This is what sailors experienced:
This is a solid anchorage, but it can get a bit crowded. With four boats already anchored when we arrived, finding a good position was a bit of a challenge. We ended up anchoring in 12 meters of water.
Paralia Agios Stefanos
- 37°23'46.0"N 24°27'27.6"E
- Seabed Type: Sand
Anchorage
This is what sailors experienced:
This is an excellent anchorage! We found a great spot in a mix of mud and sand, carefully avoiding any weed beds. The water was crystal clear, and the seabed was remarkably clean with no clutter.
Kysys Beach
- 37°23'46.1"N 24°28'21.5"E
- Seabed Type: Sand
Anchorage
This is what sailors experienced:
Holding: not great but okay after a few attempts, aim for the sand patches. As it is quite narrow and depending on the wind you will want to have a Landline. It‘s possible to tie off the beach using a big rock, not the trees. Very calm and calming, clear water, you can hardly see a house from here, all the stars out.

Livadaki Beach
- 37°25'44.5"N 24°26'26.8"E
- Seabed Type: Sand
Anchorage
This is what sailors experienced:
This anchorage is a true gem, offering a glimpse of untouched nature. We were completely surrounded by unspoiled beauty, with not a single sign of civilization in sight. Goats grazed on the cliffs above us, the water was crystal clear, and we even spotted a small ray while snorkeling! The sand held well, and we anchored in 7 meters with 30 meters of chain. This bay is very well protected. A word of caution: Our charts were completely inaccurate regarding depth, so be sure to check your readings carefully.
Aliki Beach
- 37°19'05.1"N 24°22'21.9"E
- Seabed Type: Sand / Seagras
Anchorage
This is what sailors experienced:
This bay is lovely, but quite compact and sheltered from the swell. We eventually decided on the wider, more protected side of the bay for a more comfortable stay.
Gaidouromantra Beach
- 37°19'03.2"N 24°24'06.3"E
- Seabed Type: Sand / Rocks
Anchorage
This is what sailors experienced:
This bay boasts clear water and good holding in around 6 meters of sand. While it’s safe, it’s not the most comfortable spot when northerly winds gust up to 35 knots, as the swell wraps around the rocks and enters the bay. It’s worth noting that sonar charts seem to be inaccurate – we found ourselves anchored in 6 meters instead of the chart’s indicated 1 meter. This means you can get much closer to the beach than expected!
Skilou Beach
- 37°19'55.2"N 24°24'60.0"E
- Seabed Type: Sand
Anchorage
This is what sailors experienced:
This is a fantastic anchorage, but the depths are way off! It’s much shallower towards the beach, with plenty of sand at around 5 meters.
