6 Pleasant

The beach is stunning, but unfortunately, there are no trees in the vicinity. This means that you'll have to choose between enduring the scorching heat or paying 35€ to rent a pair of sandbeds. Also, the beach has lovely brown fine sand.

Fine brown sand, creating a picturesque setting for visitors to relax and soak up the sun. Additionally, chairs are available for rent, providing a comfortable option for those looking to unwind and take in the beautiful surroundings.

4 Frustrating

The pricing was quite surprising, with a charge of €35 for 2 chairs and an umbrella, followed by an offer to purchase food or drinks. However, the view was breathtaking and the colors of the sea were stunning. One positive aspect was the easy access to the beach, with parking just steps away. Additionally, the beach provided a chair on rails for handicapped individuals to access the water. On the downside, I witnessed a family next to me pick up a hypodermic from the sand, which was not acceptable, especially with a young child present. Also, the price was quite high, although it seems to vary depending on the tourist season. One peculiar experience was the fish biting at my legs and ankles, which was a bit shocking despite being warned beforehand.

This beach is truly amazing, with the added bonus of beds available for €25 that include an umbrella and table service. The sand is soft and the water is crystal clear, making it one of the best beaches in Milos. However, parking is limited so it's best to arrive early.
