A large hilltop cross and expansive west-coast views make Kampi one of the island’s classic sunset stops. It is a simple but effective addition for travellers driving the rugged western interior.
A wild limestone swimming spot below the cliffs near Agalas. Reach it on foot and expect rock slabs rather than sand; shoes with grip are useful.
A pair of sheltered pebble coves on the northwest coast, known as departure points for Navagio boat trips. Worth visiting in its own right for the water and steep cliff scenery.

A family-friendly pebble beach in a sheltered bay, with clear, shallow water and tavernas nearby. It is also a convenient departure point for boat trips to the Keri Caves and Marathonisi.
