There are two beaches in the town of Agia Galini separated by
a river: Agia Galini and Kali Limenes.
My Rating Overall
1 = beach was fine for swimming and
sunbathing one time
Beach
Large Pebbles
Sea Floor
R = rock (large rocks at the sea floor making standing difficult)
They did feel a bit slippery too.
Water
1=the sea water was not very inviting at the time
we visited. We did more sunbathing than swimming
(These are just my own unscientific observation of the water feel
and appearance)
My family and I enjoy the water when it is crystal clear, and cool
instead of warm. We don' like visible floating particles
of any kind
or algae settled
on the beach.
Clothing
Topless sunbathing is common
Access
Good = paved road all the way to the beach, parking near
the beach
Amenities
Restaurant (on the beach)
Bar (on the beach)
Town within walking distance
Organized beach
Camping on the beach
Hotel on the beach
RV / Camper Accessibility

Snorkeling
N = does not look promising, I did not dive
