Sarakiniko
The most famous beach of the island, thanks to the unique, moon shaped landscape. It has white volcanic rock formations with brilliant deep blue waters. There is a small natural harbour, enclosed between the rocks, with sand and green-blue waters.
The scenery is spectacular, with constant changes of volcanic materials and abundant fossils. Its name comes from the pirates who used it as shelter. (The bindings of the ships that are carved in the rock, are still preserved.) The white of the rocks and the lack of vegetation create a unique sense, that you will hardly forget.
