Beach description
Cozy sandy beach surrounded by lush eucalyptus grove, which gives a lifesaving shade and exudes a divine scent. The sea is relatively shallow and calm, with a wonderful turquoise hue, and the water is smooth, flat and safe. All necessary conditions have been created here for a comfortable and pleasant stay for both adults and children: There are comfortable sun loungers and umbrellas, showers and locker rooms, sports and children's playgrounds.
The beach is quite crowded and lively, especially on weekends, when the residents of mainland Greece rush here for the weekend. Here you can do yoga, yachting, parachuting or paragliding, learn stand up paddle boarding and flyboarding, which recently became popular.
Tourists are also attracted to the many different bars and taverns located right on the beach and competing with each other in the fight for customers. Some of them lure visitors with exotic cocktails, the best on the coast, others invite trendy DJs, while others try to surprise with impressive discounts. And on the weekends, the beach turns into a loud youth party, one of the most popular on the island.
When is the best time to go?
Greece - a country with a long length from north to south, so the recommendations will vary depending on the place where you are going. The holiday season begins in May and reaches a peak in July-August: there are too many tourists, and the temperature on the southern islands reaches 40 degrees, which may still not play a role on the beach, but certainly not suitable for sightseeing. So the best time to relax in Greece is the end of spring-beginning of summer or September-October.
