The Best Beaches of Greece

Greece is a modern European country with wonderful weather and the best beaches on the Mediterranean Sea.

The Best Beaches of Greece

1.Balos (Chania, Crete)
Soft white sandy beach is surrounded by light blue, crystal waters.





2.Sarakiniko (in Elafonisos Island, Peloponnese)
Three of the best beaches in Greece are located in a tiny island called Elafonisos (Southern end of Peloponnese). Sarakiniko, Simos and Panagia.


4.Navagio (Zakynthos)
White sand, blue waters, great for snorkeling exploration of the shipwreck left many years ago.




5.Egremnoi (Lefkada)
Not very populated because of the thousand concrete steps down, and then up.
Beautiful beach, crystal clear turquoise water, and soft white coarse sand make this beach one of the best to visit.


7.Myrtos (Kefalonia)
On the west coast of Kefalonia, fantastic water and bright-white pebbles.





8.Finikas (Kato Koufonisi)
Nudist are welcome here.







9.Plaka (Naxos)
Starts near the town of Naxos and runs down the entire coast of the island.





10.Paradise, Super Paradise and Panormas beaches, Mykonos





11.Red Beach, Santorini
Small red grainy sand partially covered in wood shavings to keep it cool, crystal water and rocks to offer snorkelers some action.





12.Milopotas and *Manganari beaches, Ios
Soft yellow sand and clear water located closed to the town.







14.Psili Ammos beach, Serifos
The name of the beach means soft fine sand, and that exactly how this beautiful white beach is.

15.Maragas and *Plaka beaches, Naxos
Soft sand, a scattering of trees, discreet services on a dirt road, almost turquoise water and lots of space make this an excellent location for layabouts. Nudists are welcome.

The most beautiful beach on the island is undoubtedly Kolymbithres.

17.Koukounaries and *Banana beaches, Skiathos [not for people with Pine allergies!]Koukounaries with fine yellow sand, clear, water and three tavernas. Banana Beach, next to Koukounaries, Popular nudist spot.
