Karavostasi is a huge sandy beach 7 kilometers from the resort village of Perdika. This is a popular place where sand is mixed with pebbles, and in the evenings you can enjoy a beautiful sunset. It is framed by high rocky hills, overgrown with green pines and cypresses - all together creates a beautiful landscape. Translated from Greek, "Karavostasi" means "the place where the ships stop."

Descripció de la platja
In spite of its popularity, Karavostasi is seldom overcrowded. It is situated at a distance from large cities, like Sivota or parga, so it will never gather crowds. Visitors value it for calmness, relaxed atmosphere, soft sand and picturesque views that will look perfect on a picture. It should be kept in mind that the depth increases rather sharply here, so kids may feel not very convenient.
There is basic infrastructure, like sling chairs and umbrellas, together with several taverns sparsed in the beach vicinity. There are places to stay for a night. Just 700 meters southwards from Karavostasi, there are ruins of the ancient Greek city of Elina, now called Dimokastro. From this place, you can see the site the battle at Sibot Islands taht was one of the reasons why Peloponnesian war was started.
When is the best time to go?
Grčka - zemlja dugačke dužine od sjevera do juga, pa će se preporuke razlikovati ovisno o mjestu u koje idete. Sezona godišnjih odmora počinje u maju, a vrhunac dostiže u julu-avgustu: ima previše turista, a temperatura na južnim ostrvima dostiže 40 stepeni, što možda još uvijek ne igra ulogu na plaži, ali svakako nije pogodno za razgledavanje. Dakle, najbolje vrijeme za opuštanje u Grčkoj je kraj proljeća-početak ljeta ili septembar-oktobar.
