Karave beach has round pebbles and heads south to Korfos bay. It is not organized, but is the only choice for those who want to swim near the port. The water is crystal clear and quite deep. Karave is not very special about swimming, especially if you compare with the rest beaches of Gavdos.
The beach that stands out from all of the west side of Gavdos is Diana. Diana is actually the second southernmost beach in Europe, after Tripiti which is located a few meters to the southeast. The beach stands out from the rest as it is less rocky, has small pebbles and has a massive rock below which you can find shade all day.
While hiking from Sarakiniko bay to the most famous beach of Gavdos, namely Agiannis, you will meet the small and serene beach of Fetife(s) at location Karediana. Next to it there is a small tavern and the last point where you can reach by car. The beach is formed at the exit of the small stream of Agios Pavlos, in which small ponds are formed in winter.
Tourkavlako beach is located a little north of the port of Karave in Gavdos. The beach has pebbles and sand, while deeper it has rocks. There is no natural shade, which makes it hard for someone to stay there without shade all day long.
