Chrysopigi

The miraculous church


The beach of Chryssopege is in fact the rocky coast in front of the peninsula with the homonymous monastery. It is situated at the southern coast of the island, between Faros and Platys Gialos, at a distance of 8 kilometers southeastern to Apollonia.

Accommodation and other facilities are available in the area around. 

The rocks at Chrysopigi are a favourite jumping off point for many swimmers.


East of the church is the sandy beach of 'Apokoftou' with its crystal-clear azure waters. The only buildings are the two restaurants right on the sands. From there, begins a cobbled pathway leading to the beach of Glyfos in Faros.

West of the church is Saoures, a small secluded pebble beach.


Local attractions include the White Tower, located near the crossroads between Platy Gialos and Chrysopigi, which is the most famous of the 77 ancient towers on the island and the best preserved.

In the general area of Chrysopigi there is a grocer's and limited tourist accommodation.
