✓ Manually calibrated shoreline

The orientation of the shore and the shelter of the bay were checked one by one on the map for every beach — they are not derived automatically.

Large sandy beach before Agios Nikitas, with pine trees reaching the shore. The atmosphere is relaxed, ideal for quiet swims. The western orientation offers nice sunsets, while the bay provides light protection from the winds.

Wind & waves: when to go

The beach faces west. With easterly winds the air flows offshore and the water near the shore stays flat; with westerly winds the sea builds up waves onto the beach. The coast is exposed to the open sea, so conditions change quickly with the wind.

🌅 Sunset over the sea: all year round

The shore faces west (290°), so all year round the sun sets within its field of view, over the water.

An estimate based on the orientation of the shore — a headland or island opposite may hide the horizon.
