Edit SpotAbout
Don't avoid just for the dirty water.... It' a must to surf wave!!! Really nice and perfect. really empty spot used by lsome friendly local and bodyboardes. Be carefull to the rocks in case of wipeouts.
Additional Info:
There is a very dirty river crossing the beach. Best cross it using a fisherman boat, they can help you with a small fee. The spot works only with swells from north. The water is dirty due to pollution of upstanding poor village of Charamicos. But the wave is really really nice, clean and large. It breaks close to a big rock and becomes a nice tube.
