More natural lagoon than beach, with steep limestone walls, ladders or rock entries, and exceptionally clear deep water. Excellent for confident swimmers and snorkellers; not ideal for small children or anyone wanting sand.
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.
One of the island’s best clifftop viewpoints, looking over the Ionian Sea and the two dramatic sea stacks known as the Mizithres. Visit near sunset, but keep well back from cliff edges and avoid relying on unprotected photo spots.
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.
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.
