June and September deliver calm, warm seas with crowd levels still manageable, and late afternoon casts a golden glow across the bay. Set off on boat trips by mid-morning, before the afternoon breeze kicks up choppier water.
Budsjettips
The coves, harbor, and swim platforms are all free, so a long afternoon costs little more than a frappe. Buy picnic supplies at the village mini-markets instead of taverna menus, and pay just a couple of euros each way for the passenger ferry to the island across the bay.

Om
Raske fakta: Roughly a thousand people call this port home, yet a single August evening can squeeze fifteen times that many onto the waterfront. Aristotle Onassis bought the forested islet across the bay in 1963, and the twenty-minute ferry hop to the island beyond still runs hourly.
Høydepunkter: When the sea lies glassy, you can pick out a rusted freighter's funnel breaking the surface offshore from the village walkway. Snorkel out to the 1980 wreck and circle a hull crusted in barnacles, with silver fish streaming through its shattered portholes.
Insidertips
- Pack water shoes, since the natural swim ledges and stone platforms get treacherously slick with algae.
- Claim a free sunbed at the far end of the beach before 9 a.m. to beat the excursion-boat crowds.
- Order from the handwritten day-boat specials board rather than the laminated tourist menu for fresher fish at a lower price.
- If you arrive by car, park at the edge of the village, because the harbor lots fill up by late morning.
