About

Schínos beach is located on the Aegean Sea (part of Mediterranean Sea) and it is in the 778th place out of 1022 beaches in the South Aegean region 57.7 km away from its center, the city of Ermoupoli. It is one of the beaches of Kampi settlement, just 3.9 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place, among the mountains.

It is a small bay with green pure water and black sand & pebble cover, 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 almost deserted place even during the high season.

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

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

5 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Karthea beach, which has a rating of 6.8.

Schínos beach (South Aegean) is located outside the Kampi 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 Kea 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 Schínos 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.

The beach is really lovely, but it's important to be cautious of the waste water from passing ships.

This beach is quite lovely with its black sand and pebbles, but getting there can be a bit challenging. Overall, it's definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a secluded spot to relax.

10 Exceptional

Possibly the finest beach on the island, but the road leading to it is only accessible by 4x4 vehicles. There is no natural shade available, so it is advisable to bring an umbrella ☂️ and wear appropriate footwear as you will need to walk about 100m from where you park your car. Additionally, the beach offers a range of water and beach sports activities.

The beach with stunning natural beauty that is sure to take your breath away. However, reaching it by car can be a bit of a challenge, especially if you don't have a 4-wheel drive vehicle. Additionally, be on the lookout for some metal structures that have been left in the water. Despite these minor obstacles, the beach is definitely worth a visit and you're sure to have a wonderful time there.
