The "Channel of Love"
Soft sandstone carved by erosion into arches, caves and narrow fjord-like channels, on the northwest coast (Sidari). There is little sand — you sunbathe on the flat rock shelves.
The "Canal d’Amour" (French for "channel of love") carries the legend that any couple who swim through the narrow channel will stay together forever. A popular, easily accessible spot within the Sidari resort.
