Akoli Beach
Pebble cove about 15 minutes' easy walk from the road near Kassiopi, great for snorkelling. Nothing to buy, and it's quietest before the boat trips arrive around 11:00.

About Akoli
- Is Akoli a sandy beach?
- No, Akoli is a pebble beach, so water shoes are handy. Facilities: unspoiled nature and snorkelling.
- Is it easy to park at Akoli?
- Roadside parking. Spaces are limited and fill up early in summer, so arrive before 10:00 or come by scooter or bus. It's a 15 minute walk from the road, and the last stretch is a dirt track.
- When is Akoli least crowded?
- It's rarely crowded, even in August. Outside June–September it's quiet all day.
- Which wind is best for swimming at Akoli?
- The beach faces east, so it's calmest when the wind blows from the west and gets waves when it blows from the east. It stays sheltered when the summer maistros (northwesterly) blows, which makes it a good choice on windy afternoons.
