Agali Beach
Αγκάλη
The island's most popular sandy beach in the southwest, at the end of a deep valley, with beach tavernas and accommodation, reachable by bus.
Agali lies about 5 kilometres west of Chora, at the end of a ravine. It is the only large sandy beach on the island with a direct bus route (you walk a steep slope after getting off). The beach has a few small tavernas, parasols and a handful of rooms, and is very popular in summer. From here a coastal path leads about 15 minutes to Agios Nikolaos Beach, and in summer small boats run to other coves. It is relatively sheltered on days of strong north winds.
