Platys Yialos
Platys Yialos Review
This region of the island is home to its most beautiful beaches, including Platys Yialos (Broad beach), the most developed and popular stretch of sand hereabouts, thanks to its hotels and cafés. Once a potters' beach, it still has potteries, where you can buy what you see being made. The most notable is the shop of the brothers Apotolides (22840/71358), which offers ceramics based on traditional but modernized designs.
