Beach overall scores
Paralia pothia (South Aegean) is located outside the Telendos settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Telendos island, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"This beach is an absolute treat! Although it may be a bit small, it offers a unique charm for those who appreciate a touch of ruggedness and the opportunity to perch on the rocks. The aroma of tea is quite potent and the sounds of rebetiko can be heard drifting from one village to the next. Overall, a delightful experience!"
