This stunning beach boasts an expanse of pristine white sand and tranquil turquoise waters. During our visit in early May, we were delighted to find ourselves virtually alone on this idyllic stretch of paradise. As evidenced by the accompanying photos, the beach is perfect for leisurely strolls that can be extended to include the neighboring beaches, all of which are equally stunning.

This beach is truly remarkable! It boasts a wide and genuine atmosphere that is unstructured, allowing visitors to bring their own umbrellas for shade or relax under the natural shade of the trees at the back. The water is absolutely pristine with a stunning color that is difficult to capture in pictures. The entrance to the water on the left side is free from stones, making it easy to wade in. The beach has a genuine and intimate ambiance that exudes a carefree and liberating vibe.
Mikro Alyko beach

Jenelle Rivers
This charming beach is nestled in a picturesque and protected bay, offering a tranquil and secluded atmosphere unlike the bustling Hawaii beach or the expansive Alyko beach. The water here has a tendency to deepen rapidly, making it an ideal spot for swimming enthusiasts. To immerse yourself in the breathtaking vistas of the peninsula, we recommend taking a hike along the cliff's edge before settling down on the sand.
