How to reach Firopotamos
Firopotamos is located on the northern coast, just a short drive from Plaka or Adamas. The asphalt road leading down to the village is winding and steep but fully paved. There is no consistent public bus service directly down to the waterfront, making private vehicles or taxis ideal. The walk from the village parking area onto the sand and pebbles is completely flat and effortless.
Parking
Where to park near Firopotamos
A free, unpaved public parking area is located at the entrance of the small seaside settlement, right behind the beach. Parking space is quite limited due to the narrow layout of the old fishing village. During peak summer weeks, vehicles fill the lower lot quickly, requiring drivers to park along the steep hillsides of the descending approach road.
