The beach is littered with garbage and there are no comfortable places to relax, only rocks and more garbage. However, it's worth noting that the beach has public free entry.

During my stay on the island of Anti Kythira, I was pleasantly surprised to discover an amazing beach that was hidden away like a secret resting place. The water was great and the feeling of isolation made it seem like I was the only one experiencing this hidden paradise. The energy of the place was so unique that it made me wonder if I should return to my early life. What's more, the beach has public free entry, so anyone can enjoy this beautiful place. At night, the sky was breathtaking with countless stars and colorful clouds of the galaxy. You have to see it to believe it!

The beach is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend it. It's worth noting that there's no need to pay for entry as it's open to the public. However, it's important to respect the natural environment and leave it as untouched as possible.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Kamarela (Attica) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Kamarela (Attica) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Kamarela for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
