Beach overall scores
Small Monastery (South Aegean) is located outside the Kampos 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 Antiparos island and the correct question is not how to get to Small Monastery, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.
User reviews
"The vast expanse of the beach is simply breathtaking, offering a stunning view of the surrounding area. Regrettably, the beach is not easily accessible, and those who are inexperienced drivers with an unsuitable vehicle should steer clear of it as the road is not particularly suitable for cars."
Aldric
"This beach is absolutely stunning, but it's only accessible by hiking or boat. Would it be possible for us to all make a pact to pick up any plastic litter we see and take it with us when we leave? Thank you!"
