- Maaike B1 contributionA pebble beach with beautiful clear blue water. A parasol with two beds costs you €30,-, very expensive compared to other beaches on Karpathos. The lady who manages the cots is very coercive and likes to control things. We would recommend another beach on Karpathos where the beds are cheaper and which is probably just as beautiful (almost all beaches are beautiful).Visited August 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten August 26, 2024

The water was nice and perfect for snorkeling! However we did get an all in all bad vibe of the place, because it was very crowded and as soon as we approached the there was a greek lady forcing us to rent her sunbeds and parasol. She first tried to charge 18 euros and we then ended up paying 15 euros for a parasol that was so worne out that it did not even cover the sun properly. Also one of the sunbeds was broken and covered in bird poop…

Close to Amoopi Beach but slightly less crowded and with small pebbles instead of sand. Nice place to snorkel.

A very good option when it is very windy on the island. This beach is close to Pigadia, is organised and ideal for people who like snorkelling. Convenient as there are restaurants above and cafes to drink one coffee also close to the bus stop. Better to avoid in high season as beach is full with local families and many tourists. Better to enjoy in June or September, if weather is good also nice in Oktober.

Amazing beach with pebbles outside and rocks inside the water. Organized with umbrellas but not so much space to put yours. Very clean water and rocky surroundings.

Only way to access is by 2km road with poor surface (uninsured with most rentals). Only 1 cafeteria serving 2 lovely beaches but with no shade you have to get a parasol. All taken by 11am

Staff is great, and will make you feel right at home. Food is Greek. Greek food is great....in Greece. But soon you start longing for less fries and more spices. No surprises here, but food is well made.

For me the most beautiful beach together with the nearby amoopi. Visually speaking the most beautiful turns out to be diakoftis, too bad that the wind always blows them, while votsalakia mi ja saved the holiday since karpathos is very windy and this beach and amoopi are the most sheltered. Crystal clear water and pebble beach, bring your shoes
