Trip to Potami beach

A trip to Potami Beach is best started at the modern Agios Nikolaos Church. From here is the best view of the beach. Ideal early in the morning, when the sun will shine on you and there will be few people on the beach

From the church you can also see the view back to the road from Karlovassi, from where you came. But that's not the famous view yet

From the viewpoint you can see the rocks dividing Potami Beach into two semicircular bays. The closer bay is not organized to the more distant are two sections of deck chairs

Potami beach is pebble, but the pebble beach is smaller and the access to the water is good. One of the hallmarks of this beach are the colored rocks in the middle between the bays

The beach is surrounded by several hundred meters high peaks, which gives it a very nice backdrop

Looking back you can see the modern building of the church on the cliff. From the perspective, the two bays seemed almost the same size, but it's just an optical illusion. The more distant one is at least 5 times longer

At the beach you will also find the mouth of the stream on which there are famous waterfalls. From the beach it is about a kilometer and a short walk to the waterfalls

Potami Beach is really large, it is more than 500 meters in length

Another landmark of this beach is a nice rock at the western end of the beach

Definitely worth a trip to Potami Beach in the morning. It fills up very quickly and around noon there is slowly no place to park
