Tucked away below the coastal road near Plakias, Foteinari (often spelled Fotinari) is a tiny, rocky haven that feels beautifully hidden. Surrounded by wild cliffs and lush greenery, its pebbly shores meet incredibly clear, calm waters that are a dream for snorkeling. It’s an unpretentious, quiet escape from the bigger crowds nearby—perfect for laying down a towel, listening to the gentle lap of the waves, and completely disconnecting.
