Portello is Mathraki's long sandy eastern beach, offering shallow water and straightforward access near the island's main harbour area.
Portello is the island's easiest sustained beach day, but its quiet appearance should not imply full services. Bring shade and water, watch for small craft near the harbour end and check wind before settling. Sand and a gradual entry can suit families in calm weather, although there is no dependable lifeguard and seasonal facilities remain limited.
