Órmos Oryiás
✨ Hidden gem
Órmos Oryiás is a quiet anchorage on the northern coast of Kea, where you drop the hook in calm, sheltered water well away from the busier spots on the island. The bay sits close to Otzias, a small settlement with a sandy beach and a handful of tavernas within easy reach by dinghy or a short walk. Holding is generally reliable on sand, and the surroundings are low-key Cycladic countryside — scrubby hills, minimal crowds, and a genuinely unhurried feel.
