Maltezi
Μαλτέζι
⛱️ Sunbeds & umbrellas👨👩👧 Family-friendly
One of the two proper sandy coves in the south, round the headland from Katapola: fine sand, shallow calm water and a small canteen in summer. Boats shuttle across from the port in a few minutes, or you walk the coastal path in about half an hour. On an island this steep, a beach you can actually lie on is worth the crossing.
