About

Seychelles beach is located on the Aegean Sea (part of Mediterranean Sea) and it is in the 14th place out of 398 beaches in the Northern Aegean region 175.2 km away from its center, the city of Mytilene. It is one of the beaches of Magganitis settlement, just 2 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place with very picturesque views, surrounded by the cliffs.

It is a tiny bay with crystal turquoise water and light fine pebble, so you don't need 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 very crowded place during the season.

Seychelles 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.

Not everyone can get to this beach. To reach it, you have to follow a dangerous mountain path, not recommended for children and elderly people. Parking is located at some distance, within 300 meters.

2 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Magganitis beach, which has a rating of 6.7.

Seychelles beach (Northern Aegean) is located outside the Magganitis 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 Icaria island

Venturing to this beach is undoubtedly a rewarding experience. Even with a little one in tow, I managed to make the descent with ease while sporting comfortable footwear. It's highly recommended to make the trek down rather than contribute to the pollution of the surrounding ecosystem by taking a boat.

This picturesque beach deserves a perfect rating for its breathtaking setting nestled at the base of towering mountains and offering unobstructed views of crystal clear waters. However, its diminutive size requires visitors to don sturdy hiking shoes for the rocky descent and ascent from the road. Despite the crowds during peak season (mid-August), we managed to navigate the spiky rocks and found a spot to enjoy the scenery. If you're willing to carry it along the narrow ledge, a picnic is a great idea. After you've found the easy way back onto the rocks, there's plenty of opportunities for diving and jumping into the refreshing water.

Absolutely splendid! The water is ideal for taking a dip. It takes roughly 15 minutes to make your way down a hill from the main road to the beach, so it's advisable to come prepared with appropriate footwear.

The beach is a wonderful destination to explore, however, it can become quite crowded. It is advisable to avoid visiting during the peak hours of mid-day in the months of July and August, as the heat can be quite intense.

The path leading to the beach can be treacherous, especially when you approach a certain point where a steep cliff looms. The rocks are also quite slippery, especially if you happen to be wet. It is recommended to consider alternative means of transportation such as a trip or cruise, or even a small boat to reach Seychelles beach safely. This way, you can fully enjoy your swim without any discomfort or inconvenience.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Seychelles beach (Icaria 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 Seychelles beach (Icaria 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 Seychelles 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.
