Dragonera Beach
Just outside the road from Megalo Chorio to Limenaria, Dragonera Beach is a cove with pebbles surrounded by pine forests on the western coast. The beach offers a range of sunbeds and shades, available for rent from a small kiosk on the shore. This is the only sign of tourism in Dragonera: beyond the uninhabited coniferous hills, if you're feeling adventurous, you could navigate around the rocks to the north to find a quiet spot for swimming. The sea at Dragonera has a charming turquoise color, with surf conditions that should be safe for everyone.

Megalochori
The capital of the island, Megalo Chorio, is nothing more than a small village with a population of less than 500. Parallel to Skala is the settlement that is more oriented towards tourism. In ancient Greece, the port of Megalo Chorio was used as a naval base, while today it is a simple fishing port with nets filled on the quay. Ships also arrive from Aegina, as well as the "Flying Dolphins" from Piraeus. Take some time to wander through its whitewashed alleys, bright with fuchsia flowers, and locate the village landmark, a windmill dating back to 1812.
