Chill time !
It’s now nearly June and the temperatures are building fast.
Whilst you can always cool off at the back of the boat with the shower or (if brave) a quick dip in the harbour – only to be considered when very quiet and no boats “polluting” the water, especially the charter ones!
But nothing quite hits the mark like a dip in clear blue seas. There are a number of beaches around Limnos as you can imagine from the indented coastline.
Limnos Island
Moudhros Harbour & Town – we are where the little white marker is on the 1st finger at the bottom.
There are two relatively close beaches (Paralia in Greek) , about an 8 km return walk away from Moudhros. Faliraki & Havouli.
Faliraki has a beach bar and small apartments to let.
Havouli has absolutely nothing just a beautiful beach.
I have only been to Faliraki.
Louise has been to both.
What does that tell you? lol.
Yes, it’s out over that road in the distance !
On one visit we walked further, past the actual beach, to look at the possibility of anchoring off here. Certainly a beautiful spot but there are a few underwater rocks you would need to be careful of.
Falaraki Beach in the distance.
After swimming we had a drink before thinking about trekking back, neither of us are sun worhippers so half an hour usually suits and yes that is Daniel Craig’s body double exiting the sea.
There are some cracking houses on the walk back – would do me quite happily. Some quirky ones as well – a beautiful wee garden but the house is made of containers must be boiling. We think maybe it’s just a garden plot.

The pretty “container” flower garden – check out the wee church feature in the centre.
Finally back “home” in the toon centre.

Havouli beach in the distance – another day.
Totally deserted !
