Located at the tip of the island, lies a secluded beach that offers a breathtaking vista of the neighboring island, Ios. The crystal clear waters are a mesmerizing shade of blue and the depth is unfathomable. The only way to reach this hidden gem is by a lengthy stroll along a scenic trail or by boat. It's important to note that there are no vendors nearby, so it's advisable to bring along everything you may need.

This stunning beach boasts a steep trail that requires a bit of extra caution. It's recommended to bring along a walking stick or pole to ensure your safety. The beach offers four umbrellas for public use, providing some much-needed shade on hot days. The shoreline is mostly covered in pebbles, adding a unique texture to the landscape.

This charming beach is a hidden gem accessible only by boat or a challenging two-hour hike for the adventurous. The shoreline is a mixture of sand and pebbles, but as you venture into the water, the terrain transforms into smooth rocks. The peaceful atmosphere and serene surroundings provide a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

This secluded and intimate beach boasts breathtaking hues of water that will leave you in awe. However, reaching this hidden gem requires some effort as it involves a bit of rock climbing from the trail. Despite the challenge, the reward of experiencing the serene beauty of this beach makes it all worthwhile.

To reach this beach, one must board a water taxi. Upon arrival, there is a slight ascent which calls for the use of athletic footwear. However, the climb is well worth it as the waters are stunningly clear and tinted with shades of blue and green. While it is rumored to be less populated than other beaches, it is important to note that there is no shaded area, save for a petite tree. Nevertheless, the serene atmosphere makes for an excellent swimming experience.
