just before the village of Argyrades, a road to the right runs down to the beach of Agios Georgios. Essentially Halikounas and Agios Georgios are one huge beach, 10 kilometres in length, with sand dunes, fine sand and shallow water. In such a vast expanse, you can be sure of finding a secluded spot to yourself; even at the height of the tourist season. In the centre of Agios Georgios, though, things are somewhat different: hotels and rented accommodation, restaurants and bars, ski, jet-ski, paragliding, parachuting, volleyball, and, as you can imagine, people everywhere. In the middle of Argyrades a road junction is signposted to Neohoraki, Roumanades, Vassilatika, Kouspades, Korakades and Petriti, all villages on the east coast and all well worth a visit.
