Frangos Beach

Frangos is a sandy beach with calm water on Elafonisos.

Frangos is a sandy beach on the quieter side of Elafonisos, with calm, shallow water and few facilities. It tends to be less crowded than Simos, so it suits those who prefer a more relaxed pace. The sand is fine and pale, and the water is clear, with pine trees providing some natural shade behind the beach. A small seasonal canteen may be open in summer, but it is best to bring supplies. The beach is a good choice on days when the wind blows from a direction that makes other beaches rough, since it is more protected. The access road is unpaved in parts and the parking area is basic. The place is also good for walking along the shore. Visit in the morning for the calmest water. Remember to take your rubbish with you and respect the natural environment, which is fragile.
