点评:A very beautiful beach near the city of Ierapetra; unfortunately, the vegetation on the surrounding hills was affected by the devastating fire in the summer of 2024 (though less severely than in other areas).
There are two private beach sections: a larger one on the left as you face the sea, where there is also a restaurant, and a smaller one on the right. In between, there is a fairly generous public area (more than half of the beach), reserved for those who want to spread their towels directly on the sand. Those who don’t want to rent a sunbed can also sit among the rocks at the edges of the beach.
The seabed is covered with round pebbles, which makes the water very clear - you can see fish swimming right at your feet.
At both ends of the beach, where the rocks begin, the underwater landscape is spectacular and very suitable for snorkeling enthusiasts.
The beach is very easy to reach by car from Ierapetra (about a 15-minute drive), although parking spaces are somewhat limited.
If you don’t want to drive, you can take the bus on the Ierapetra – Makry Gialos line and get off at the “Hotel Achlia” stop. From there, you can walk down to the beach on a paved road, and along the way there are several spots from which you can take photos of the entire bay.
If you miss the “Hotel Achlia” stop, you can get off at the next one, on the other side of the valley, but you’ll have to walk a few hundred meters along the roadside, where cars tend to drive at high speed.
Prices: last year, a set of two sun loungers and an umbrella cost 10 euros per day.
Drinks are quite cheap, comparable to prices at a simple bar in the city. I didn’t check the food prices.
If you go by bus, the ticket costs about 4–5 euros, depending on how much you travel.
There are also many villas in the area offering accommodation, but unfortunately, following the 2024 fire, the landscape looks a bit desolate.
翻译:伊拉佩特拉市附近有一处非常美丽的海滩;可惜的是,周围山丘上的植被在2024年夏季的毁灭性火灾中受到了影响(尽管比其他地区受损程度轻)。
海滩分为两部分:面向大海的左侧是较大的区域,那里还有一家餐厅;右侧是较小的区域。中间是一片相当宽敞的公共区域(超过海滩的一半),供那些想直接在沙滩上铺开浴巾的游客使用。不想租用沙滩椅的游客也可以坐在海滩边缘的岩石上。
海底覆盖着圆形鹅卵石,使得海水非常清澈——您可以清楚地看到鱼儿在脚边游来游去。
海滩两端岩石开始延伸的地方,水下景观蔚为壮观,非常适合浮潜爱好者。
从伊拉佩特拉开车前往海滩非常方便(大约15分钟车程),但停车位比较有限。
如果您不想开车,可以乘坐伊拉佩特拉 (Ierapetra) 至马克里·亚洛斯 (Makry Gialos) 的巴士线路,在“Hotel Achlia”站下车。从那里,您可以沿着铺好的路步行前往海滩,沿途有几处可以拍摄整个海湾美景的地点。
如果您错过了“Hotel Achlia”站,可以在山谷另一侧的下一个站点下车,但您需要沿着路边步行几百米,那里的车辆通常行驶速度很快。
价格:去年,两张沙滩椅加一把遮阳伞的价格是每天 10 欧元。
饮料价格相当便宜,与城里普通酒吧的价格差不多。我没有查看食物的价格。
如果您乘坐巴士,票价约为 4-5 欧元,具体取决于您的行程。
该地区还有许多别墅提供住宿,但不幸的是,在 2024 年的火灾之后,这里的景色显得有些荒凉。
