Parents also ask
Which beach is best for young children?
Makris Gialos is the wider, sandier public beach with sunbeds and shallow entry, ideal for toddlers, while Platis Gialos is smaller and closer to the hotel.
Is it walkable to restaurants?
There are tavernas near the beaches, but Lassi's main strip and Argostoli are a short taxi or drive, so a hire car is handy for evenings out.
