This sand beach is less crowded at its northern end. Agia Anna beach, the next bay south, is much smaller, with a small port. Both Agios Prokopios Beach and Agia Anna Beach are accessible by public bus in the summer. South of Agia Anna you'll find Plaka Beach, 5 kilometers of almost unoccupied shoreline where clothing is optional, you can reach it by walking south from Agia Anna. |
