Escape to Spetses' finest beach — a sweeping arc of pebble-and-sand fringed by ancient pines and lapped by the clearest water in the Saronic Gulf. Arrive by water taxi for a seamless, supremely luxurious afternoon.
What to expect
The water taxi skims around the island's eastern headland, depositing you at a pine-shaded cove of extraordinary clarity — the water shifts from jade to cobalt in under 20 metres. Sun beds and parasols are available from the beach taverna, which serves grilled octopus, fresh fish, and chilled Assyrtiko at waterside tables. The beach is never crowded and the pine canopy provides natural shade. Your taxi captain will return at a pre-agreed time, getting you back to port effortlessly.
Good to know
Water taxis depart from the Dapia quay — negotiate and agree the return time before the captain departs. Allow at least 2.5 hours at the beach. Lunch at the taverna is slow-paced in the best Greek tradition — factor this into your all-aboard countdown. Beach taverna accepts cash; bring euros.
