Trachili Beach
Τραχήλι
🤿 Good snorkelling
Between Lithi and Elinta on the west coast, reached by a short unsurfaced track off the coast road. Pebbles, no shade, no canteen, and clear deep water with good rock to swim around. The kind of beach you find by stopping where the view looks promising, which on this coast works more often than not.
