The water is shallow and a clear clean blue, which makes it very nice for swimming.On the way to Pori, there are some wonderful rock formations with exotic blue water. These rocks are often used for diving, offering an amazing experience to the divers and a great chance to photographers.

To Mati Tou Diavolou cave. Just before you get to Pori beach on the cliff path, at the cape at the end of the cove, there is a small cave called Devil’s Eye (To Mati Tou Diavolou) .It is difficult to find as its entrance is not visible.

Gala Beach. Gala means milk in the Greek Language and the beach gets this distinctive name from the frothy waves that one can see in the interior of the caves. Gala is basically an open cave connecting the sea via a narrow open corridor and the sea gains entry into this cave through this opening. The small pebbled beach is beautiful and the whispering you hear is the sound of the pebbles that the water is carrying.
