Vathi Bay is located on the west coast of the eastern half of Astypalaia Island.
Yachts can be anchored all around the bay at depths of 3-8 meters. Bottom is sand, silt, seaweed. Holding is good. Excellent shelter from winds and waves of all directions. During Meltemi there are strong gusts of wind.
There is a small concrete pier and restaurant on the north-west end of the bay. Yachts are moored to the pier with their stern at own anchor or alongside.
