Santa Margarita
Σάντα Μαργαρίτα
🤿 Good snorkelling
A remote pebble bay on the east coast with a hermitage-like chapel above it and no facilities whatever. The approach is a rough track and the last part is on foot. Water is exceptionally clear over stone, which makes for good snorkelling, but there is no shade and no shelter if the wind turns. A place for one swim and a long look, not for a day with children.
