37°17.4′N, 27°05.5′E
There is only one cove that offers some protection from the meltemi. Anchor at 5 m depth, reasonable holding. Sometimes the wind can shift to the E, in which case you should take a shore line to the rocks.
Warning: The Greek army may not allow a non-Greek flagged boat to spend the night here. Also, the unescorted landing of non-Greek citizens is prohibited.
