A few hours to a full day Just east of Kokkari, north coast Best June–September

Two Blue Flag pebble beaches a short walk east of Kokkari: the best swimming on this stretch of coast, with clear water, some shade and a taverna or two nearby. They're pebble, not sand, so bring water shoes. Both are easy to reach from the village, which is why they fill up in July and August — go early or late.

What to see and do

Swimming in clear water — the main event: calm, clear water off pebble beaches. Water shoes make a big difference.
Easy from Kokkari — a short walk or drive from the village, so no need for an organised trip.
Beachside tavernas — simple places to eat on or near the beach; the classic lazy day.
Go early or late — the crowds arrive mid-morning in July and August — mornings and evenings are calmer.
