I had a great experience at the beach with golden sand. The bar owner, Yannis, was incredibly kind and helped me through a panic attack when I was worried about my boyfriend's safety.

The beach has a lovely expanse of golden sand and isn't too crowded. Additionally, there's a waterpark nearby.

The beach is charming, albeit petite in size. The sand is stunning, and the surroundings are undeniably picturesque. It's commendable that the beach is well-maintained and kept immaculate.

The beach offers complimentary sun beds. As you soak up the sun, you can enjoy the light music played by the sunset bar, which also provides beach service upon request.
