BEACHES

The privileged location of Barefoot Contessa allows you to visit beautiful beaches within walking distance. To the south, we suggest the sandy beach of Ai Helis [14 km from the accommodation], which is characterized by its grayish color. You will enjoy water sports, beach volleyball, and an incredibly blue sea. Not one or two but five whole kilometers stretch the sandy beach of the cosmopolitan beach of Skala [21 km from the accommodation], a top-rated tourist resort with organized facilities, at the southern tip of the island.

In Lassi, we can find the excellent and organized beaches of Platys Gialos and its natural extension, Makrys Gialos [18 km from the accommodation], which is separated by rocks. The first is more family while the second is aimed at young people, as it has beach bars and music.

On the east side of the island near Sami, we find the stunning Antisamos [33 km from the property], a large organized pebble beach that was the setting for the Hollywood movie "Captain Corelli's Mandolin."
