Swimming

The sandy beach of Karteros is just 300 meters (a 3 minutes walk) from the Centre. A lifeguard is on watch from 10 am to 8-9 pm , at the Akti organized beach. The surface of the sand is usually flat without stones, thus not giving a hard time to people with kinetic difficulties. Swimming is a very pleasant thing to do in Crete , as the water is usually warm. Also, it is a very good muscular exercise, suggested by physicians to people with physical disability or people with movement difficulties.
