Beach overall scores
Keramoti Beach (Crete) is located outside the Livadia 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 Crete 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 Keramoti 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
"Keramoti beach in Crete is a secluded paradise! It's always peaceful and uncrowded, and the ocean is absolutely stunning! The beach is rocky, but the water is incredibly clear and pristine. These breathtaking photos were captured with a GoPro from the nearby hill, showcasing the incredible view."
Davide Santori
"This beach is slightly less popular than Elafonissi due to the fact that it requires a short walk down and back up, as well as a rocky dirt road. However, it is definitely worth the effort! The water is absolutely beautiful and there are great opportunities for snorkeling right from the beach if you have your gear with you."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Keramoti Beach (Crete island) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Keramoti Beach (Crete island) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Keramoti Beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
