This stunning beach deserves a solid four stars! While umbrellas are available for a standard fee of 10 euros, it's important to note that there's no connectivity on the beach. This means that card payments are not possible, and there's no Wi-Fi available. If you encounter any issues while you're there, you'll have to rely on your own resources. However, the beach is peaceful and quiet, with only 25-30 umbrellas spread out along the long stretch of sand. This makes it a great spot for Italian families seeking a relaxing day by the sea.

This beach lies just beyond the typical bus route, yet it still holds a strong presence. Unlike the more popular beaches, it is not overrun with crowds, allowing for a more peaceful and serene experience. The nearby taverna is staffed with friendly and accommodating individuals who provide excellent service. The journey to this hidden gem is a breeze, with no steep inclines or treacherous terrain to navigate.

From my perspective, Megalos Aselinos stands out as the most picturesque seaside destination in Skiathos. Nonetheless, it is important to note that the beach is prone to strong gusts of wind and the waves can be somewhat treacherous. 🌊🌊🌊🌊

The beach is quite expansive and boasts a single bar and a handful of umbrellas for visitors to take refuge under. However, the majority of the beach remains unoccupied, and what's most noteworthy is that even during the hustle and bustle of August, it's not at all crowded. The water is pristine, although it's worth noting that due to the winter season, there may be some waves present, and the water gets deep quickly, which may not be ideal for young children.
