Pipitos (Kassiopi) beach guide
Pipitos is a small pebble cove below the northwest side of Kassiopi castle, with clear water and rock formations that make it popular for snorkelling.
It's about a 10-minute walk from Kassiopi harbour along a path around the headland, and steps lead down to the beach from the road above.
Reports differ on what's open on the beach itself, so bring water and anything you need. Bataria, Kassiopi's other small cove, is close by.
