Armona

The beach is very clean, with fine white sand . It stretches for miles and the sea is usually calm, clear and shallow. This is a Blue Flag beach , which attests to its quality and safety. There are lifeguards, sun loungers and equipment for water sports such as stand up paddle.

In the dunes you can spot wildlife, from chameleons to different species of birds. If you're looking for peace and quiet in a beautiful natural setting away from the crowds, this is your beach , just a few minutes' walk from the boarding bridge.

This island only began to be inhabited in the 20th century. Many of the houses (most of them built in the 1970s) are now used only for vacations, while others have been turned into cafés and restaurants.

There are no hotels on the island, but you can stay overnight in the bungalows at the campsite or in the houses available to rent.
