A few words about Gianni karavouzi & argy karavouzi the karavouzi bros

The Founder

The history of Canopy Beach Bar begins in 2001, when Yiannis Karavouzis created a small hangout for friends and locals on this beach, with the aim of relaxation and summer beach volleyball tournaments.


Over the years and the development of tourism on the island, the place evolved into a family business of the Karavouzis brothers. With the contribution of the younger brother, Argyris, the original hangout grew and took the form of today’s Canopy Beach Bar.

” Today we continue with the same philosophy: a place by the sea for relaxation, good company and beautiful summer moments.
