About Akuarium Beach
Akuarium Beach is a tiny, picture-perfect cove known on social media for blue-turquoise water clear enough to read the bottom, which is where the name comes from. It can be reached via a 1.5 km hike from Livadhi Beach following red trail markings, or from Jale Beach with a 4x4 vehicle. There are no facilities whatsoever, so visitors should bring water and food, and arrive before 10 AM to beat the crowds.
