The rocky beach is lovely and not too busy. It's easily accessible by road, which is in decent condition. Make sure to bring your own water and food as there are no nearby bars if you plan on staying all day. There are only two umbrellas available, so you might want to bring your own.

This beach is small and has pebbly slabs, making it unsuitable for young children. The water is very clean.

This beach is unattractive and difficult to access due to a rough dirt road. The only thing you'll gain from visiting is a trip to the repair shop.

Krithariá 2nd beach (Thessaly) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Krithariá 2nd beach (Thessaly) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Krithariá 2nd beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing.
