About

Vrysitsa beach is located on the Aegean Sea (part of Mediterranean Sea) and it is in the 203th place out of 348 beaches in the Thessaly region 134.4 km away from its center, the city of Larissa. It is one of the beaches of Patitiri settlement, just 1.8 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place, among the mountains.

It is a small bay with crystal turquoise water and gray pebble, so it is recommended to wear special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers etc. It is almost deserted place even during the high season.

Vrysitsa beach coast is free for all. It has no amenities, only nature. .

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities.

This beach is easily accessible, it is located very close to road. Parking is located directly on the beach.

25 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Marpunta beach II, which has a rating of 7.9.

Vrysitsa beach (Thessaly) is located outside the Patitiri settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Alonnisos island and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Vrysitsa beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

Alonnisos boasts of a secret gem that is worth discovering. It's a leisurely stroll from Hora that takes about 25 minutes, so there's no need to drive. The beach is pristine, especially during our visit in September 2022, with no crowds in sight. Snorkeling enthusiasts will find this spot ideal for their underwater adventures. However, it's best to bring your own refreshments and an umbrella if you plan to spend the day. We're already looking forward to returning to this hidden paradise next year!

4 Frustrating

The beach's silence speaks volumes - it's clearly not meant for basking in the sun! Merely being weather-beaten doesn't automatically qualify it as pristine. It's a secluded cove that can only be accessed via a rugged dirt path. I wouldn't necessarily endorse a visit here.

10 Exceptional

This secluded beach boasts a small cove adorned with a mix of sand and gravel. Accessible via a dirt road of moderate complexity, be sure to navigate the winding bends with care during the 10-minute descent. The lack of crowds lends to a serene atmosphere, allowing one to fully immerse themselves in the natural surroundings. While the beach is minimalistic in terms of amenities, it offers a world of tranquility. However, it is worth noting that the wind may bring in some litter to the sea.

The beach boasted stunningly beautiful and pristine water that was crystal clear. However, the area was somewhat untidy with a significant amount of litter present. Despite this, the beach was not overcrowded and the water was refreshing and enjoyable.

10 Exceptional

This serene and secluded beach is a rare gem on the island, offering a unique blend of tranquility and pebbled terrain that is easily accessible. Though the path to the shore is a narrow dirt road devoid of any amenities or shelter, with a little planning it can be a rewarding and rejuvenating experience. And on calm days, it's an idyllic spot to soak up the sun and take in the stunning natural surroundings.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Vrysitsa beach (Alonnisos island) 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 Vrysitsa beach (Alonnisos island) 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 Vrysitsa beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
