Korfos beach

Located just 2km south of the sole port in Gavdos, Karave, you’ll find Korfos, also known as Bosom. A scenic footpath meanders along the coastline, connecting Karave to Korfos in about an hour’s walk. However, many tourists choose to take the bus that runs between Karave and Korfos. Nestled in a long bay, Korfos beach is a haven of beautiful sand and pebbles, with a smattering of rooms and taverns nearby. It’s an ideal spot for a tranquil family getaway, offering basic amenities within easy reach.

In close proximity to Korfos is the St. George chapel, complete with a nearby spring. Notably, artifacts from the Late Minoan era (1600-1100BC) have been discovered south of the beach, suggesting that Korfos has been a thriving settlement since ancient times.
