⛱️ Sunbeds & umbrellas🤿 Good snorkelling👨👩👧 Family-friendly
The middle cove of the Kokkari three, named for the lemon trees that grew behind it. Smaller and more sheltered than Tsamadou, with a taverna above and sunbeds across most of the pebbles, which makes it the easiest of the three with children. Park on the road and walk down a short slope; in August arrive before eleven or you will not park at all.
