Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Kamini beach (Crete island) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Kamini beach (Crete island) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Kamini beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

The beach is a delightful and inviting destination, exuding a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It is unfortunate, however, that the presence of plastic debris detracts from the otherwise pristine surroundings.

The scenery at this location is breathtaking, but it's important to note that it's not your typical sandy beach. Instead, you'll find jagged cliffs and rocks being pounded by the crashing waves. This spot is definitely more suited for experienced beach-goers, as it can be difficult to navigate. However, if you're up for the challenge, you'll be rewarded with stunning views. If you're looking for a more comfortable beach experience, you may want to check out Agios Antonios, which offers a similar landscape but with more amenities like towels and umbrellas.

The beach would be an absolute paradise if it weren't for the countless plastic debris scattered all around.

The beach has a pleasant and unspoiled atmosphere, evoking memories of the classic video game Boulder Dash on the Commodore 64.

The beach with stunning views and picturesque scenery, perfect for capturing beautiful memories through photographs. However, it is unfortunate that the currents that flow through the area tend to bring in a lot of litter, which can detract from the overall experience. Despite this, the beach is still worth a visit and should not be missed.
