    Description

    Small, quiet cove on the road from Naoussa to Santa Maria (≈3–4 km from Naoussa). Shore is a sand–pebble mix with very clear, shallow waters. It lies on the NE side within Naoussa Bay and is exposed to the summer Meltemi (north) winds, so the sea is usually calm to mildly choppy but can get more agitated on windy days. Access is via paved road; parking is informal along the roadside. The beach is largely non-organized (occasional private umbrellas may appear), with no reliable on-site services. Good for a quick swim and basic snorkeling along the rocky patches. Notable cautions: limited shade, no lifeguard or toilets, and wind/waves when Meltemi blows.
