Rocky coast on the northern coast, at sea, in an uninhabited area, shortly after the beaches of St. George and Lygaria. The beach is exposed to almost all the northern and western winds and there are no trees.

On foot you can get from Ano Meria, starting from the chapel of Chrisopigi and following a good path. After about 20 minutes walking time you will reach a point where the path splits in two. You will follow the right and you will reach the sea after about half an hour walking in a path inaccessible. For hikers and those who want to enjoy a swim in a quiet, almost monastic environment, with very clear water. Of course it is almost deserted, the nudity is acceptable.
