A long shingle beach on the west coast below Mesochori, reached down a track off the ridge road. There is a chapel, a seasonal taverna in some years and a great deal of space. The west coast catches the afternoon sun and, in a northerly, a fair amount of swell; the shore is steep enough that it is not the place for small children.
