Apella Beach

Απέλλα

The most celebrated bay on the east coast, with white pebbles and fine sand meeting turquoise water in shifting shades of deep and light blue.

Apella Beach lies about 18 km north of Pigadia, enclosed by steep green slopes and cliffs. Its water is crystal clear, and it is often ranked among the most beautiful beaches on the island and even in Greece. The beach is a mix of fine sand and small pebbles, and in summer there are umbrellas, sunbed rentals, and a small restaurant. You can drive to the parking area and walk down the steps, or take a tour boat from Pigadia port in summer. The afternoon sun is strong, so bring sunscreen and water.
