Beach overall scores
Krios beach (South Aegean) is located outside the Krotiri 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 Paros island 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. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Krios beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., 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
"I absolutely adore this beach, but do make sure to head to the section where the restaurant is situated. It's the perfect spot to lounge on comfortable sun beds, take a refreshing shower (which is simply divine), and indulge in a scrumptious lunch on the stunning beach deck. You'll find it in the bottom left corner of the posted picture."
Kai Arman
"This charming seaside bar boasts delectable cuisine, a welcoming team, and pristine azure waters. If you relish laid-back and inviting environments, this spot is not to be overlooked. Indulge in mouthwatering seafood dishes that rival those found in the cosmopolitan hub of Paros."
