The community's most stunning beach boasts crystal-clear waters and, true to its name, boasts a generous expanse of soft, powdery sand. While access via a path may prove challenging, the lack of commercialization in the form of sunbeds and shops only adds to its natural charm.

Ribera Nuria

10 Exceptional

This beach in Pteleos is definitely one of the top contenders, boasting a virtually seaweed-free shoreline. The water is crystal clear in the early hours, but as the day progresses, the waves become more prominent due to the swelling sea. As the beach is quite secluded, it's essential to bring along your own provisions, including water and food. To reach the beach, you'll need to navigate a downward path.
