One of the island's most beautiful beaches, the long arch of Paleohori is backed by banded cliffs and has tavernas, beach bars, water sports and patches of hot sand, thanks to thermal springs in the area. It's reached by a good sealed road, and buses from Adamas head here seven times a day in summer.
