Greece : Snorkel coves : Greek Islands and Greece Forums

Rather than the long wide sandy beaches, we look for small rocky, pebbly inlets, perfect for snorkelling.

Can anybody tell me if the island can provide them for me please?

I'm looking at a map and on the south coast Amouso, Afteli and Sivota look small enough so can anybody expand on these , with accommodation right upon them if possible.

Thanks

Jerry

Hi bear,

I have never been to these places. I just saw them from the road that leads to the village/beach of Vassiliki.
The beaches were very small if you compared them to the other beaches of the islands and they were some accommodation just behind.
I can't say more about them.

I only find info about Amousa on Greeka:

Excellent. Thankyou. Don't know how I missed that photo Embarassed

Would you recommend any particular boat hire company aswell as excursion boat to the nearby islands?

Looking to hire a boat for the day (30 hp ) to do some coastline or possibly around Meganisi. Would this be possible in a small boat or would it need to be on a larger excursion boat?

Thanks

Jerry

I don't know much about renting on Lefkada. Just know that the owners of http://www.genigarden.com/ rent some small boats. You should try to contact them.

Thankyou. Yes I like the look of these. How much is a taxi into Nidri from there each night or how long to drive?

And the boat idea is fantastic.
