User reviews
"The beach is well-maintained and has a pleasant atmosphere, although it can be quite windy at times. Additionally, there is a beach club available where you can enjoy some refreshments. It's worth noting that the sand on this beach is gray and there are pebbles scattered throughout."
Lysandros Ipsilantis
"The beach is simply delightful, with crystal-clear waters that are a sight to behold. It's a bit further from Kos Town, about 45 minutes by bike, which means it's not as crowded with tourists. There's a wonderful restaurant and bar located right on the beach, and they even provide sunloungers and parasols for your comfort."
