Latest reviews on Finikia's beaches

Paralia Gialos
5 Anita Stabilini

Spiaggia visitata in agosto 2023. La spiaggia era deserta, nessun bar, nessun lettino. Accesso veramente difficile con motorino e/o quad data la pendenza della strada simil sterrata Molto intima e carina, appunto perché non abbiamo trovato lo stabilimento balneare al nostro arrivo. Si presenta di una sabbia color nero tendente al marrone, l’entrata in acqua però è abbastanza difficoltosa visti i sassi. La definirei una spiaggia molto selvaggia! ATTENZIONE, ci sono momenti in cui le onde salgono fino a metà spiaggia e vi portano via tutto, probabilmente è dovuto al passaggio di navi in lontananza. Ve lo dico per esperienza!

Monolithos beach
8 Sarim Ali

This picturesque beach boasts soft sand that's perfect for lounging on. You'll find a variety of seating options available, with prices ranging from 5 to 10 dollars depending on the location you choose. I highly recommend this beach, especially if you're traveling with children.

Kanakari beach
6 Nicolescu Dragomir.

The sandy shore is a sight to behold, with its breathtaking beauty that leaves one in awe. However, the beach bar's exorbitant charge of 40 euros for an umbrella rental is an anomaly even for the stunning island of Santorini.

Paralia Monolithos
10 Andrew Kessler.

This beach is an ideal destination for families with young children. The water is very shallow, reaching a depth of only 1.5 meters after 200 meters from the shore. The sand is a fine black color and is kept very clean. All the necessary amenities for tourists are available, making it a convenient and comfortable experience. I highly recommend this beach to anyone looking for a family-friendly and enjoyable day at the seaside.

Baxedes beach
10 Nico Jaxon

Stumbled upon a serene and secluded section of the beach, away from the bustling crowds. Although the terrain was slightly rugged with scattered rocks, the tranquil waters and peaceful atmosphere made up for it.

Caldera beach
6 Zorineth

This beach is decent but lacks sufficient shade, and the rocky terrain can be a bit challenging to navigate. When the winds pick up, the waves become quite strong and can make it difficult to swim. In fact, the rocks can be quite hazardous, and I found myself constantly dodging them to avoid getting hit. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this beach for those who are looking for a relaxing, swimmer-friendly experience.
