What to expect
The hike begins with a steady descent toward the coast, following established trails that wind through Mediterranean vegetation. You'll navigate rocky sections and natural pathways as the landscape opens toward the water. Once at Ieranto bay, you'll have time to swim in remarkably clear water before retracing your steps back up. The terrain is uneven in places but manageable for most fitness levels. Allow time to catch your breath on the return climb. Public transport connects to the trailhead.
Good to know
