This shoreline boasts crystal-clear waters that shimmer in a mesmerizing turquoise hue. While we arrived by boat, it is also accessible by foot for those with an adventurous spirit. Along the shore, you'll find a quaint bar and comfortable sun beds available for rent at a reasonable price of 15€. However, it's important to note that we did encounter a few jellyfish during our visit.

It has been quite some time since I've laid my eyes on a more exquisite and pristine beach. The natural beauty of this location is truly unparalleled. However, it's worth noting that facilities such as restrooms are not available on the island.

In the month of July, I had the pleasure of arriving at this exquisite beach by boat. Without a doubt, this is one of the most remarkable beaches in Ithaca. It is predominantly frequented by boat enthusiasts and boasts of stunning turquoise waters that are sure to take your breath away. This beach is an idyllic spot to indulge in a refreshing swim or bask in the sun on the sandy shores.

The beach was nothing special, just another crowded spot with nothing unique to offer. We had to endure a tedious 20-25 minute boat ride from Vathi to get there, and the footpath from Skinos beach wasn't any better. The only consolation was the presence of sunbeds and umbrellas for rent, but even those were overpriced. The small canteen was a joke, offering nothing but stale sandwiches and overpriced drinks. Even if you were to rent a private boat, the nearby secluded beaches were just as unremarkable, offering no respite from the mediocrity of this beach.

Arriving by boat from Vathi, we were greeted by a stunning beach that boasts a variety of amenities such as comfortable deck chairs, umbrellas, and a beach bar offering refreshing beverages and light bites. The sea is magnificent, with deep waters that are crystal clear, making it easy to spot various species of fish if you have goggles. Overall, this beach is a great spot to relax and enjoy the beauty of the Mediterranean.
