Beach Description

Megalo Seitani beach (Greek Μεγάλο Σεϊτάνι = Big Seitani). A beautiful beach with white sand and turquoise waters. The landscape has a unique wild beauty and it’s tourist virgin. The peculiar beach is surrounded by green slopes of “Kakoperato” canyon, where nature lovers can explore. Walking along the beach, at the end, you find the church of St. Nicholas which is hanging on the edge of a rock.  It is integrated into the protection network Natura 2000 because hosts seal Monachus – Monachus. The beach is ideal for those who love camping, and respecting the virgin landscape. A night in the peacefulness of nature can not be compared with any luxury hotel.
The name becam from the Turkish word “şeytan” that means diavolo, and this because the canyon “Kakoperato” that exists behind the beach, causes strange sounds when it is windy, so the Turks (who used to anchor there during the 19th century) thought that there was the devil, and gave this name to the region.
Good shoes, water and snacks recommended and do not forget to remove your trash.

Very nice and calm beach, secluded and far away from village, asphalt road, any kind of shops etc.. One of the best beaches on the island, excellent place for hiking lovers and definitely worth of visit. It is not easy to reach, so if you are not physically active, walking there maybe wouldn’t be the best idea.
