Kamarola beach at Geropotamos
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 Rating 5.00 (1 Vote)

A few meters west of Geropotamos beach and where the territory of the village Prinos begins, we find the amazing natural arch of Kamarola and next to it a stunning beach with sand, fine pebbles and crystal clear deep blue waters. The currents often bring sea logs, which take on unique forms.

The beach is surrounded by cliffs, where Eleonora's falcons and wild pigeons nest. The rocks offer natural shade and prevent access, which is possible only by the sea. Every day, especially on days when there is no wave, boats approach the beach from the nearest ports.

The closest point to reach the arch is from a natural pool a few meters west of it. The coastline from Kamarola to Skaleta is full of amazing sea caves.
