The Roda Beach
Type
Sandy
Sunbeds
There is the possiblity to rent sunbeds at the beach of Roda.
Facilities
None - plans are for toilets and showers though.
Child Suitability
The beach looks child friendly and is very flat. The road above the beach though is close and although it is not too busy you would need you to keep an eye on young children! The nearby rocks would keep the slightly older ones amused.
Accessibility
Down a few steps from the road. There is plenty of parking at the top, close to the beach.
Cleanliness and Urchins
No Urchins, and the beach is cleaned daily of seaweed. I was disappointed though to find cigarette ends on the beach.
Places of Interest
Acharavi has the hydro polis water park - which is a short journey away. It is also possible to visit the two islands just off Sidari - Arakosa and Mathraki.
