What travellers are saying
- Sunshine82927865 contributionsBeautiful beach with awesome green waters. Very relaxing place. However the cost of the umbrella and the sun beds is directly linked to:
1) French government and financial bonds during the elections
2) war in Ukraine and Palestine
3) the latest Biden/Trump debate
4) the tech glitch which affected the whole world on July 19th
5) the real estate crisis in ChinaWritten 20 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Please don't take mobiles with you only water, If don't like walking be there with one of the little boats at VathiWritten 26 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Iain RStockton-on-Tees, UK65 contributionsStopped here for lunch as part of boat tour of Ithaca. 4 or 5 restaurants surrounding the harbour each catering for different tastes with outdoor seating. Great for chilling out watching the sailing boats coming in and out of the harbour.Written 26 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- DreambigRoyal Tunbridge Wells, UK236 contributionsA picturesque small natural port with pretty views. Lots of excellent restaurants, cafes and gift shops. Not your usual rowdy resort over run with British holiday makers letting the side down.
A fabulous boat ride can take you out to Gidaki serviced beach. Car hire not essential but a shame not to explore this beautiful island.
Beware of very fast cars and motorbikes speeding - yes I mean speeding - along the main seafront restaurant road. How the local authorities allow this I don’t understand? Even the waiters take their lives into their own hands crossing the road with food. Accidents waiting to happen.Written 4 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- richardsowerbyBristol, United Kingdom22 contributionsThe monastery has a very tranquil atmosphere. We visited just after a coach had left so it was very quiet. The church is impressive for its stained glass and gold ornaments and is still used for special services. The views from beside the bell tower are wonderful looking down across the bay to Varthy.Written 25 June 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Linda CLudlow, UK65 contributionsA festival is held each year at Polis Bay on the Sunday nearest the 1st October. A priest blesses the local fishing boats, and then there is lots food and local wine.
It is great fun but gets very busy and parking is difficult. Lots of locals gather to celebrate as it marks the end of the tourist season. Visitors are made very welcome too.

The beach bar is fantastic, great food, music and friendly service. The beach itself is one of the best on Ithaca. Highly recommend.Written 24 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Rower1991Warsaw, Poland287 contributionsIt is our fav beach on Ithaka indeed.
You can drive there, a few minutes going by safe stairs then.
Water is more refreshing due to stream and wind, but it is the cleanest beach too.
Calm in the morning, while getting windy afternoon.
Quite deep waters, so do not leave kids without attention even a second.
Otherwise recommended!Written 4 August 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

So take a book and sit in the sun or, better still, at a taverna with a glass of wine.Written 20 October 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Derek BBridgwater, UK72 contributionsWalking distance from Vathy, tricky path down or 5 minutes extra down road. Very quite beach, lovely safe swim, couple of yachts in bay, less that 10 people on beach. Bar was shut but we entertained ourselves.Written 17 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
