Arginonta Beach
Quiet protected bay with a small café
Arginonta is a calm bay on the quiet northern road, about 15 minutes' drive from Masouri. It has a small café, a modest row of sunbeds and some of the easiest snorkelling on the island.

The essentials
| Surface | Pebble |
|---|---|
| Sunbeds | A modest set with umbrellas in season |
| Food and drink | Small café by the beach, tavernas in the bay area |
| Getting there | On the main north road, ±15 min drive from Masouri |
| Good for | Escaping the busy strip, snorkelling |
The bay is well protected, so the water is usually flat. Bring a mask: the rocky edges hold the best easy snorkelling on this side of the island.
Climbing sectors sit in the hills around the bay, so you share the beach with climbers on rest afternoons.
