Apothikes

The cape of Kolimpithra (20km northern of the town of Tinos) consists of five beaches. The best known are Megali Kolimpithra and Mikri Kolimpithra.

The rough winding conditions on the area of Megali Kolimpithra, makes it totally unsuitable for swimming. The beach of Mikri Kolimpithra is considered one of the visitors’ favorite since it is organized with umbrellas, sun beds and beach volley facilities. There are many restaurants, hotels and the camp of Leontios.  The other three beaches Mantroklisi, Apothikes and Palio Agio Filakto are rather small, sandy and wind-sheltered. They are ideal for those of you who crave for relaxation.

The bay of Kolimpithra is a natural sea basin and a declared wetland where rare species of birds, turtles and other animals live. In the middle of the bay we can see Drakonisi.

Agapi is a small beautiful village with kind-hearted people and traditional houses. The village has traditional alleys, a well while the streamlet that crosses the plain with the dovecotes creates a very romantic atmosphere. The Catholic church of Saint Agapitos, located in the centre of the village, is its trademark.
