Beaches

Ithaca has a plethora of gorgeous bays, the majority of which are smooth white pebbled crescents with aquamarine waters, backed by pine-clad mountains. Some are accessible only by mountain tracks, others from the sea and many easily by road. No matter what the time of year, it is almost always possible to discover a beach that you can enjoy alone!!
