Anchorages
Pserimos Cove
GPS: 36°55.8′N, 27°07.9′E
The small village of Pserimos is situated in a cove on the W side of the island. The cove is somewhat protected from the meltemi but is subject to considerable swell. Unfortunately, during the summer days the little cove is very crowded by noisy day-trip caiques from Kos, and there is hardly any room for a yacht.
Caution: There is a reef N of Cape Sphuri.
East Cove
One can anchor briefly here [36° 56.1' N 27° 09.2' E] when there is no wind. With a strong meltemi anchoring it is not tenable.
Tourism & things to do ashore
Other than a walk and enjoying the beeches there is not much to do here.
