This small beach in the village of Kerame sits on the northern coastline of the island, very close to Evdilo.  Here is the perfect spot for a quiet and peaceful swim….not well-maintained and with no amenities….but the “away from reality” quality it has makes it very attractive to many people!  Just imagine a place with a smooth sand and white pebble beach, crystal-clear waters, plush-green trees that almost touch the shoreline providing a natural canopy of shade and comfort not found anywhere else….well, here it is, Kerame Beach. 

In addition, the rocky seabed is ideal for any spear fishing fans.  Although Kerame is made for those looking to get away from it all, close by you’ll have access to tourist-developed areas and cosmopolitan beaches….just another incentive to check out this little corner of paradise!        

In the village of Kampos, at a distance of 41 km from St. Kyrikos and in a semi-secluded, green area is a popular sandy beach.  Kampos beach does offer some tourist amenities such as lounge chairs, umbrellas and a snack bar.  To get there, you must cross an unpaved road, after which the coastline will come into view, as well as the river that flows into the sea, creating a picturesque landscape! 

After an enjoyable and relaxing swim, take a walk into the village, where you can visit the local wine vineyards and try some of their famous sweet and semi-sweet red wines….dine at one of the traditional tavernas, or even pay a visit to the village church, St. Irene.  At Kampos, one will find all the tourist amenities needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.      

Another popular beach, called Mesachti, is alongside Armenisti in the area of Gialiskari.  This beach is easily recognizable by its many small lakes that form the shoreline, the culmination of two rivers merging and emptying into the Aegean Sea.  The golden sands and transparent, shallow waters of Mesachti give you a nice choice for swimming and a family outing. 

Here you can also engage in water sports, especially parasailing and windsurfing due to the consistent winds blowing in the area.  The beach offers use of umbrellas and lounge chairs free of charge, and is well-maintained.  As with Armenistis, the adjacent area of Mesachti has many quaint tavernas, bars and cafes and other tourist amenities and services.       

On the northwest side of the island, at the foothills of where the fishing village of Armenistis lies, is a small beach, hugging the shoreline of a scenic gulf, and surrounded by lush-green vegetation.  The sandy beach, with a smattering of pebbles, has calm waters year round, ideal for a relaxing swim. 

The beach is well-kept and has complimentary lounge chairs and umbrellas.  Combine your day at the beach with a stroll through the village, where you will find many traditional tavernas (offering up delicious, local flavors), shops and other tourist amenities to make your stay a pleasant one.
