The beach of Ai Helis, south of Argostoli, is a seashore near the village of Svoronata, consisting of fine sand and crystal-clear waters! It features shallow seabed and gentle waves, meaning that it is an ideal destination for kids. In addition, the sea rocks and fish make this a potential snorkeling destination, too!
