10 Exceptional

This beach is truly remarkable, and it can get quite crowded. It's arguably the best beach on the island, with its small pebbles, crystal-clear waters, and caves to explore. To ensure you get a spot, it's best to arrive before 11am.

Nikolas Katsaros

10 Exceptional

This beach is the most beautiful and secluded spot on the island for swimming. Unfortunately, there's not much room to sit and relax, and it can get crowded quickly. However, it's a must-see for a dip in the crystal clear, blue waters. To get there, take the sandy road when you spot the sign for Μπλε Λιμανάκι.

The water at this beach is the clearest I've encountered yet. It can be a bit crowded, but it's definitely worth it.

This beach is undoubtedly the best on the island, with its crystal clear waters. It's quite small, so it's best to arrive early in the morning before the crowds come. It's also easily accessible by car.

The cove on the outer side of Maltezana bay, opposite Plakes, is a nice little spot. To get there, you can either walk or drive from Analipsi to the cape end, and then cross it by taking the path that begins with a gap in the fence.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Blue Harbour (Astypalea 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 Blue Harbour (Astypalea 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 Blue Harbour 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.
