Взяли машину и из деревни Истрон поехали смотреть на пляжи острова. Когда приехали, сразу напугались, что вообще туда не попадем, так как парковок мало, но местный парковщик умело всех раскидывает. Па... more »

Took the car and from the village of Istron went to look at the beaches of the island. When came, immediately napugalis that generally did not fall, because parking is small, but the local parking skillfully all spreads. Parking fee required. When we were leaving we saw that there was a possibility to park on the side of the parking lot, but then decided that there cannot do and how honest people, drove into the parking lot. Palm Grove is very nice, but the beach itself is teeming with people and the impression it is distorted. Entry into the water is good, but even in water closely. There is aircon, as elsewhere in Greece. On the beach there is a shower and cabins for changing clothes. There is free parking on site and a toilet. Hours sunbathing and exploring the territory we had and we have gone further to explore. In the East, from remote beaches more liked Xerokambos Bay beaches-people no, crystal water and lots of fish. This beach like the locals, as this area is not developed turesticheski and nature far there pristine pure.

Τέλειο μέρος που απλά δεν "υπάρχει"! είναι ένα τοπίο που δεν το συναντάς από ότι ξέρω σε άλλο μέρος στην Ελλάδα! Παντού τεράστια φοινικόδεντρα και μια παραλία με ψιλή άμμο που σε περιμενη για χαλάρωση... more »

Perfect place that just does not "exist"! It is a landscape that doesn't come from that I know elsewhere in Greece! Everywhere massive Palm trees and a beach with fine sand in perimeni for relaxation ... crystal waters and indeed there is much life in. There is the parking spot Tavern Brown wc, and so you can sit several hours and enjoy the Sun..!

The beach is really beautiful! Is super equipped with umbrellas and sunbeds and restaurant offers, besides a great view, excellent menus at a price which is totally acceptable! The water is crystal clear and the view from the top of the walk is really nice. Shame about the wind ... You raised me continually gusts of sand. I couldn't even put a sunscreen without looking like a breaded cutlet! It is worth spending a day at the beach!
