About the Beach

Kastro Cove is a small and picturesque swimming spot located below the historic Chora on the island of Samothrace. It features pebbles and deep blue water, offering a convenient place for a dip for those visiting the ancient ruins and the medieval castle. The beach is unorganized and maintains a local and traditional character, as it is mostly used by people staying in the nearby village. The water is clear and provides a high-quality environment for a quick swim. The surrounding area is rocky and reflects the history of the island as a naval power. It is a spot for a dip followed by a walk among the stone walls and the narrow streets of the settlement. The atmosphere is quiet and respectful. You should bring your own water and food as the amenities are up in the village. It is a part of the coast that is very scenic and offers a glimpse into the island's past while providing a refreshing break from exploring the historic heights of the Chora.
