This charming and historic place deserves a 5-star rating for its natural beauty and rich cultural heritage. Starting from the village, visitors can explore a small yet fascinating archaeological museum before making their way down to the sea. While the first section can be accessed by car, the remaining 500m must be traversed on foot along a stunning path through lush vegetation. The descent takes about 10 minutes and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. Upon arrival at the stony and barren beach, one can't help but be awed by the ancient ruins dotted along the shoreline. Palaiopoli, the ancient capital of Andros, was once a bustling port that played a significant role from the classical period up to the Byzantine era. Although the port is now submerged, it is still visible and adds to the area's rich historical context. The beach itself may not be the main attraction, but the backdrop of olive and cypress trees against the sea is reminiscent of the hills of Tuscany. All in all, this place is a must-see for those who appreciate natural beauty and cultural heritage.
