The beach stretches on the coast of the Euboea and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive.

User reviews
"When the wind isn't blowing, Pebble Beach is quite pleasant. The water is deep and warm, but clear as can be. They've got a canteen that serves coffee, beer, and tasty skewers."

"It feels like being surrounded by a lush forest, but with the added bonus of being by the ocean."

Makrigialos beach (Euboea) 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 Makrigialos beach (Euboea) 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 Makrigialos 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.
