The beach of Agios Anargyroi is the most popular destination on Spetses, as it
has several advantages:
it has a beach with some shady places, a good taverna and a cave.
It is only a short walk to Bekiris Cave on the right side of the beach.
The name Bekiris is Turkish and dates back to an attack which happened in 1770.

The women and children of the island took refuge in the cave.
