The town beach of Agios Nikolaos

The town’s central beach, next to Lake Voulismeni, with light golden sand and gentle water, ringed by tavernas and restaurants — convenient rather than spectacular.

The name ("Kitroplatia", citron square) recalls the citron trade that flourished here last century; boats loaded citrons from stone slabs still visible underwater.
