Pebble beach · Sfinari, Greece

Platanakia

Platanakia lies in Sfinari, Greece, with a pebble shore. It is fairly sheltered, with open water only toward the west, so waves pick up when the wind blows from there. The bottom drops away quickly: about 7.8 m of water only 50 m from the shore. Further out it reaches roughly 10.7 m at 400 m. Tides are barely noticeable (about 6 cm). The nearest other beach is Φαλάσαρνα in Kavousi, 9.1 km away.
