This beach is still great, even though I first visited it 26 years ago. It's a bit more crowded now, but there are still spots where you can set up a cheap umbrella and a few towels from the supermarket. You can swim, relax, have a salad, and soak up the sun. It's a nice place to be.

If I hadn't checked out other beaches in Skiathos, I would have rated this beach higher. It's not very big, but it has a sandy shore and the water is clear and tranquil. You can rent sunbeds and umbrellas for 10 € and there are some restaurants and bars, but there are no public restrooms or shower facilities unlike other beaches.

The beach is gorgeous, and the water is incredibly tranquil. Additionally, the sand is a lovely golden hue.

Staff is amazing with their exceptional customer service. The food is delicious and reasonably priced. It's recommended to reserve sunbeds a day in advance.

The newly established taverna on Kolios Beach called The Beach House impressed us with its delicious food, comfortable sun loungers, and friendly service. The golden sand on the beach added to the beautiful presentation of the dishes. The menu had a good selection of food and drinks, and we particularly enjoyed the pulled beef burger, mushroom rustic, and the Beach House Greek salad. The Beach House offers a tasty twist to the regular dishes and surprises its customers.
