Naias Beach

This beach is just a bit louder than others because they offer more than just swimming and laying in the sand.
 There is a dock where little boats can leave their water vehicles and other fun things like pedal-boat and other fun stuff to do.
The hotel that has the same name as the beach and it is located near the beach and the beach itself is great.

The wast part of the beach is private and if you are looking for a good place to rest your mind, this is the right beach for you. About 10 minutes from the center of the town by walk, and all other things you can easily find on the beach or in one of the shops that are going all the way to the center of the town.

Pefkochory Beach is also worth being on. It has the same fine sand on the beach and also the place to rest, eat, drink, and have fun. It is also a quiet beach where you can read a book with the sound of the waves calming you down.
The only objection to this great beach is that when you enter the water, bit by bit rocks are getting bigger and all beaches have big stones under the water.
