User reviews
"This beach in Donousa is one of the best, located about a 15-minute drive from the village. It has a small sandy and pebble shoreline with exceptionally clear water. It's also a great option during days with strong north winds. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with no cell service, this is the perfect spot to unwind."
Aleksei R.
"The beach is quite lovely and well-protected from the harsh northern winds. Additionally, the sand is light in color and there are pebbles scattered throughout the area."
