Boat
Excursion boat
From June right through the summer to August there is a daily excursion boat, Thalassopouli (6974436338), that owner Yiannis takes to the more remote western beaches of Agios Ioannis, Kaminakia and Vatses, or to the islets of Koutsomytis or Kounoupa. When the weather is good, he runs longer round-island excursions. Tickets (€10 to €15) can be bought on the boat.
