About Plaz Kanoni
Plaz Kanoni is a sandy beach on Lesbos, facing north-east. Land shelters it from winds from the south-east, the south, the south-west, and the west, so those winds leave the water flat here. Winds from the north and the east arrive over open sea and raise waves when they are strong. A road leads to the beach and there is parking nearby. Within 300 m there are 1 taverna or restaurant, 1 bar or café, and toilets or showers. The sea is warmest in August, at about 24 °C. It is above 22 °C from July to September.
Written from map data (OpenStreetMap contributors), our own measurement of the open sea around the beach and NOAA sea temperatures (1991-2020 averages).
When is it busy?

Lesbos is busiest in August. In May and October there are about half as many visitors, or fewer. For a flat sea and fewer people, the best months are June and September.
Visitor levels are nights spent in tourist accommodation in the North Aegean region (Eurostat, average of 2023–2025), compared with its busiest month. They show when the area is busy, not how many people are on a given beach.
