Fodor's Expert Review Kolimpithra Beach

Kolimpithira is made up of two beaches; the smaller is more organized and sheltered with sun beds and a taverna up on the headland, the second is a larger stretch of sand much favored by surfers when the weather is right. A small scene has developed around a VW camper van converted into a cool beach bar, with driftwood furniture and umbrellas disguised as giant mushrooms. Amenities: food and drink, water sports. Best for: surfing, swimming.
