Karavostamo beach in Ikaria

Karavostamo Beach Ikaria: The village of Karavostamo is located east of Evdilos, the second port of Ikaria, and counts on a nice and well reputed long beach with sand and pebbles, and crystal clear water like most Greek islands.

Karavostamo beach can be reached either by the 2 km gravel road, or by the 1 km old foot path. the beach is divided into some other beaches, each one with a different name. For example, one of them is called ‘Aris River’.

This is the first one to be reached when coming from the southern part of the island. Its main facility is a tavern that works during summer. Further down, tou can reach the beach of Milos River. However, it is good to emphasize the fact that this area is wholly agricultural, which means there is no tourism infrastructure.Apart from the nice surroundings, the visit to Karavostamo beach can also be taken advantage of to reach the Hallika springs, as part of the excursion, which stands off the main road.

This place has been used by the villagers as their central meeting location, where they also filled their pitchers with its water, washed their clothes, and rested, while discussing the issues of the village.There are more places that can also can be included on the trip; for example, the river with the watermills where the locals used to ground their wheat. One of these can be found in the gorge of Aris river, and it is over 200 years old. The village also has some interesting houses amphitheatrically built, as well as two big churches, lots of chapels, and streams with crystal clear waters.
