Kalotaritissa
Καλοταρίτισσα
⛱️ Sunbeds & umbrellas👨👩👧 Family-friendly
At the very south-western tip of the island, at the end of the road, a sandy bay inside a natural shelter that keeps the wind and the swell out. There is one small beach café and sunbeds to rent, and in season a boat crosses to the islet of Gramvousa every half hour or so. The wreck of the Olympia lies rusting just around the point.
