Amnissos beach
10 Lira Kao

We had a great time at the beach. It was a bit breezy, but that's to be expected. We loved watching planes come in and out of the nearby airport, but the noise didn't bother us. The water was perfect, and there weren't too many rocks. We rented an umbrella and some lounge chairs for 7€ and ordered lunch and cocktails from News Cafe Beach. I suggest getting there early because it fills up fast. We arrived at 10:30 and there were plenty of chairs available, but they were all taken by early afternoon. Overall, we had a great day and would definitely come back!

Paralia Mononaftis
10 Ethan Hargrave

This is our preferred beach in the vicinity, but don't forget to bring your water shoes as the terrain can be rocky. The ocean is teeming with fascinating sights. Additionally, there are three restaurants, three shops, a boat rental service, and a scuba diving center available. Sun loungers and umbrellas are available for €10.
