Merihas (Merikha) is a small harbour on the W coast and the ferry port of Kythnos.  The buildings of the town are conspicuous from seaward.  The port is situated around the three sides of a small bay with a tree fringed beach. Merihas has a small marina and a few tavernas, rooms to let and a hotel.

Go stern or bow-to the quay inside the ferry berth or anchor off.  The SW end of the quay is shallow and yachts should go bow-to here with care.  It's a good shelter from the meltemi although strong gusts can be most uncomfortable. If you berth close to the ferry anchorage, careful should be taken when the ferries leaving the harbour, as their propeller tidal wave can push your vessel to the quay.
