Apotripiti beach guide

Apotripiti is a small, sandy cove between clay cliffs just west of Sidari, on the north coast. The water is clear and shallow, with patches of natural clay on the bottom.

Two small rocky islets lie a short swim offshore. There are a handful of sunbeds and umbrellas and a small beach bar. It's quiet early in the day but gets busy from late morning in high season, and the cliffs and beach are eroding, so keep away from the cliff base.
