Grab a coffee and a sweet pastry at Platanos Tavern. The shade of the 200-year-old platanus offers a calm start before the walk begins.

Walk to Kanali Beach. The sandy shore in the heart of the Askeli bay is accessible on foot just after the bridge connecting Pregymnasium with Sinikismo.
07:39
Watch the sunrise. The sun sets toward the WSW, but the eastern horizon over the open bay provides the perfect morning light as the day begins.
07:54
Return to Platanos Tavern for a full breakfast. The tavern serves food along with beer or cold wine, but early morning is the best time to enjoy the atmosphere before the heat sets in.
Local tip
The walk from the town centre to Kanali takes about 15 minutes. Start early to secure a good spot on the sand.
