Gefira beach

Gefyra is located south of Potia, just a few kilometers - and tourists find themselves in a small pebbled bay surrounded by picturesque surroundings. There is port on the other side from it. If you go further, you will find yourself in the Terme, which used to be famous for its hot springs. Now there is the main diving center of the island.

Beach description

Gefira is a cozy place, suitable for sunbathing and swimming. This place is visited mostly by local Greeks. Crystal water, beautiful landscape, close to the city, you can walk on foot. It's better to move around the beach in shoes.

Divers of all ages snorkels near rocky shores and divers are available for beginners and advanced divers.

There are sun loungers, umbrellas and a small bar right here where you can have a quick snack or drink something refreshing.

When is the best time to go?

Greece - a country with a long length from north to south, so the recommendations will vary depending on the place where you are going. The holiday season  begins in May and reaches a peak in July-August: there are too many tourists, and the temperature on the southern islands reaches 40 degrees, which may still not play a role on the beach, but certainly not suitable for sightseeing. So the best time to relax in Greece is the end of spring-beginning of summer or September-October.
