Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Enclosures 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 Enclosures 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 Enclosures 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.

This beach is great because it doesn't require any payment for entry or sunbeds.

The serene waters of the beach beckon you to rejuvenate your tired body after a long hike. It's a refreshing respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. The lack of infrastructure adds to the charm of the place, and I hope it remains unspoiled.

Exploring the path from Loutro to Hora Sfakion was a delightful experience, offering breathtaking vistas of the Sweet Water Beach. Though the terrain became a bit uneven while traversing from Sweet Water Beach to Sfakion, it was an engaging journey. Overall, it was an enjoyable hike that left me feeling invigorated.
