Assos - Fiskardo

Assos has a small beach in the gulf in which the village is built. It is pebble lined and with calm waters since the sea currents cannot reach it. Right above the beachfront ar numerous traditional taverns and coffe shops. It is a good idea, though, to rent a boat and explore the endless little beaches in the surrounding area, which are accessible only by boat.

It is a small beach with pebbles just before you reach Fiskardo. It got it's name from a ruined little church posted on the edge of the beach. The trip to this beach might confuse you a bit, due to the labyrinthine streets, but is well worth the drive. Many people prefer it for camping since the scenery within the mountain backdrop is amazing. This beach is home to sea horses.
