Istron
At a distance of 12 km south of Agios Nikolaos, there is the settlement of Istro. You will find this community as you pass along the main national road from Aghios Nikolaos eastward towards Ierapetra or Siteia.
Here three beautiful beaches are hidden in three sheltered bays. The first is to the northwest side of the village – Karovostasi: it is the quietest and most secluded, with sand and pebbles and very clear crystalline waters. Reasonably organized, with also some tamarisks to provide shelter. Next to this it is the second beach, that of Aghios Panteleimonas, named after a small white church here.
