AMOOPI

The bay of Amoopi is divided into smaller sections, each more picturesque than the other and all certain to please all types of beach-goers. Althea Boutique Hotel is located just above Mikri Amoopi, with gorgeous views overlooking both the Mikri and the Megali Amoopi bays, two of the prettiest and most popular beaches on the entire island. Further down the shore, Votsalakia, Kastelia and Fokia beaches offer a selection of gorgeous bays, all within a short walk – or swim – from each other and each with its distinct natural charm. Their shallow, crystalline waters are always sheltered from the wind, making them ideal for a family beach day!
