Tarsanas: A Swim beside Plomari's Shipbuilding Story

Combine a small town beach with the waterfront area that still carries the memory of Plomari's old shipyards.

Tarsanas is more than a convenient place to enter the sea. Its name points to the shipyards that once belonged to Plomari’s maritime economy, placing a present-day swim beside one of the town’s most important historical themes.

Beach and town in the same outing

Use Tarsanas for a short swim before or after exploring the nearby waterfront. The beach is smaller than Agios Isidoros and should be chosen for its setting and convenience rather than for extensive facilities.

The shipyard connection

Look at the wider area from safe public ground and connect it with the warehouses, workshops and port activity that shaped Plomari. Do not enter abandoned or working spaces without permission.
