Afandou Beach

Afandou beach is 800 m away and stretches for approx 3 km. with beach facilities of sun beds, umbrellas and snack bars are available at intervals.  The sparkling clean crystal clear water is ideal for swimming and snorkelling.  We recommend a short drive to the center of the beach where there is a smal childrens play area and refreshments.

At the northern end is the only Golf Course on the island

At the southern end of the beach is Kolympia with its hotels, 2 beaches and water activities.

There are many other beaches on this sheltered east coast., in particular at Anthony Quin bay or Tsambika.

 

Lively Faliraki with a full range of water sports is only 8 km away.  Gone are the days in which this area a name for questionable youthful behaviour.  The Greek authorities clamped down on anything which brought it a bad name and now it is a great place to enjoy the beach and all the activities.
