Kokkari

General information

The big beach appropriately named The Long beach is situated on the waterfront in Kokkari. There are a few taverns right on the beach and plenty nearby, the beach is very popular with windsurfers due to regular strong northern winds.

The beach consists of pebbles. The beach is unsheltered from the northern winds resulting in nice waves when the wind picks up.
