Vatera Beach

Roughly 8 km of sand and fine shingle on the south coast, described by Wikipedia as about 55 km from Mytilene. The shore shelves gently and is backed by low vegetated hills; Chios and Psara are visible offshore. The same stretch is a noted Late Pliocene fossil site — mastodon, stenoid horse and giant tortoise remains were reported here in 1997.
