Arrived at the beach via public transportation from Naoussa, a 25-minute ride. The beach is a beautiful stretch of soft, powdery sand that extends for a considerable distance. Visited during the first week of October, which happened to be their last weekend before closing for the season. The beach was not overcrowded, and the water was delightfully cool. Beyond the cabanas, there are vast open spaces where you can lay out your own towels and enjoy the stunning surroundings.

The beach exudes an air of pleasantness, reminiscent of the North Coast bezabt for those who are Egyptian. Our visit in October was met with a deserted scene, but we still took pleasure in the serene atmosphere and captivating scenery. The potential for entertainment was evident with a surfing center and coffee shops, though all were closed during our stay. If you happen to be passing through Paros, this beach is worth considering.

6 Pleasant

The beach is absolutely stunning with its fine sand and pristine, transparent water. Unfortunately, the experience is marred by the excessive amount of sunbeds that litter the shoreline, which are not only an eyesore but also exorbitantly priced. In contrast, we were able to rent a sunbed for a mere €10 at a nearby beach. At Santa Maria, the prices for sunbeds range from €40 to €60, which is simply outrageous. If you can, it's best to bring your own towel and umbrella to avoid the exorbitant fees.

For a fee of 30 euros, we secured two tattered sun loungers and an umbrella at the beach. The club sandwich and coffee were satisfactory and reasonably priced. However, the restroom facilities were quite unpleasant.

The crystal-clear waters of the beach are simply breathtaking. To fully enjoy the scenery, you have the option to rent a couple of sunbeds for 50 euros right at the front of the shoreline or opt for a more budget-friendly option of 30 euros at the back. The beach also boasts of stunning bars where you can quench your thirst with refreshing drinks while admiring the picturesque view.
