The church of Ag.Marina is at the east end of the bay and has some Byzantine frescoes (although destroyed to some length). In all of these sections of the beach, people go naked although during high season (around 15 August) there are quite a few local people who go dressed. During this period, the first section is the most crowded (max 30 people in a 200m long beach, that is) and dressed of all, but again naked people are 2/3 majority. The next two sections and especially the Ag.Marina beach are the most isolated and give you this "in the middle of nowhere" feeling. You can walk around naked and explore, though you shouldn't go in the church naked, as it would be considered a sign of disrespect. You may see local people roaming around, but it's OK: they are pasturing their sheep and will not disturb you.

Weather from OpenWeatherMap

1998: My correspondent visited this beach 3 times. The beach is very good for camping, the sea is crystal clear and the setting is magnificent. My correspondent gives it a 96% however the sand is coarse and stony in places and the seabed is generally stony and although there are sandy places on the seabed the rocks may be a bit off-putting for swimming.

1999 August: Correspondents found the second beach to be as good as the actual Aghia Marina beach (with its small church). There were very few bathers on the three beaches. The water was perfect and we enjoyed the setting anyway. A report indicated that nudity was difficult at the weekend because of the preponderance of Greek families, but at other times it was "quiet and wonderful". A report from September said Aghia Marina beach was well attended with a number of families camping under the trees. There was a group of artists sketching near the old church who remained firmly dressed but other visitors were mostly nude. When the Captain visited in September nudity would have been possible on any of the three beaches. The Captain stopped on the third, but on reflection thought the second if anything more attractive. Other correspondents seem to agree.

There is vehicle access via an unmade road from the main Rodakino to Hora Sfakion road that was used by both 4 wheel and 2 wheel drive vehicles. My correspondents tried the first stretch in a Fiat Panda but abandoned the attempt when they saw the state of the roadway. Given that hire car insurance does not cover tyres or the underside of the vehicle, the safest (and possibly least expensive) route to take is the one described above.

2001 May: A report describes all three beaches as being virtually deserted, with nudity possible on all three. A similar report from May 2002 confirms this.

2004: Unfortunately, by the summer a report states that these beaches were 100% textile during the week, and that the area was crowded with cars, caravans and tents. This may just have been an isolated phenomenon, as in that autumn even the first beach at the end of the track was deserted, and thoroughly enjoyable for naturism.

2005: A visitor in the summer noted very few people, but, sadly, all clothed. In September, however, there were several campers, all of whom were naked, and a few other nudists were present also. This is obviously one of those beaches where opportunities for nudism vary according to the taste of those using it.

2006: A report says there is now a taverna on Ag Marina called "Tou Drakou", which sells drinking water.

2011 August: a couple of barefooters came twice in the evening during weekday. They kept to the first two beaches. On the second one, nudity was easy, with 20 people and 20% fully nude. On the first beach, just in front of the taverna, there were surprisingly two people nude among the 10 present (most of the people were seated at the taverna) and it was possible to join them without problem. It is worth going to that beach at least for a walk to enjoy the splendid scenery when you look towards the mainland from the beach : special, impressive and romantic.

2015 June: A Barefooter visiting on a weekend arrived by car from the western (main road) access without any difficulty after finding the eastern, Peristeres Apartments, choked with other cars. Otherwise no significant difference from previous reports.

2020 August: A few people, all nude.
