Separated by a headland, Triopetra is divided into two beaches: "Big Triopetra" and "Little Triopetra." The former is the main attraction and features a long wild beach with brownish sand that's good for swimming – when it's not windy. Little Triopetra is more low-key, though submerged sand shelves mean it's not ideal for swimming.
