The Polis bay is an exquisite sight to behold, and the beach manager is a true gem! I highly recommend visiting this paradise, and would rate it a perfect 10/10.

The bay is quite picturesque and the snorkeling on the right side is decent. Although parking is convenient and nearby, it is limited. There is a snack truck and rental options for sunbeds and umbrellas on the rocky beach. The beach manager's enthusiasm is infectious and he is truly wonderful. If you happen to visit in the evening, you might even catch a glimpse of some goats.

This beach in Ithaca is definitely one of the best. The manager is incredibly friendly and outgoing, making for a welcoming atmosphere. The prices for sunbeds, umbrellas, canoes, and sup are reasonable. The water is crystal clear and the scenery is breathtaking.

The morning swim was lovely, and I highly recommend checking out the rocks to the North of the beach. While the water may not be as crystal clear as other spots, it's possible that the boat anchors are causing some disturbance at the bottom of the bay.
