Beaches

Sykiés Beach is located in a remote area west of Kavousi in Ierapetra, and just north of Agriomandra Beach. Above the beach stand a few fig trees, which reveal the presence of moisture in the ground.

Malavra is located 26km east of Agios Nikolaos and east of Tholos Beach. It is known for its abundant freshwater springs, which cloud the sea and, according to one version, gave Tholos its name.

The beaches of Legameni are located north of the village of Kavousi. These are two small coves, nestled among rocky formations, exuding a sense of complete tranquility and seclusion.

Analipsi beach is located in the Makrygialos area, 58 km southeast of Agios Nikolaos and 23 km east of Ierapetra, in the periphery of the community of Pefki. It is located near the outlet of the stream that flows through the lush green gorge of Pefki.

The tiny beach of Lygidi is located next to the seaside settlement of Kalo Nero, near the Kapsa Monastery, 68km southeast of Agios Nikolaos and 33km east of Ierapetra. It forms a natural boundary between the communities of Lithina and Perovolakia in the province of Sitia.

The beach is protected by cliffs and accessed by a break that creates a stream about halfway through. Nearby are the beach's two only tamarisk trees, where you can usually find shade (if they are not already taken).

Thodoris beaches, also knows as Limanakia, is located 71 km southeast of Agios Nikolaos and 36 km east of Ierapetra, just before we reach Botzalaki beach near Goudouras. It is a series of three different wonderful pebble beaches with crystal clear waters.
