The beach is a short distance from the port of Emborios and features deep, crystal blue waters and smoothly shaped black pebbles. These pebbles are the result of the lava that exploded and covered the area from the nearby volcano many, many years ago.
Mavra Volia Beach - deep, crystal clear waters divided into two sections, all of which make a day at the beach memorable.
