This location is truly breathtaking. The water is so clear, it's almost like looking through a window. The beach itself is immaculately clean, and it's evident that the staff take great pride in maintaining its pristine condition. For your convenience, the beach is equipped with umbrellas and seats, so you can relax in comfort. If you're feeling peckish, there's a snack bar conveniently located nearby, and you can place your order with the friendly beach boy.

This beach is absolutely stunning, with crystal clear waters and pristine sand that will take your breath away. It's a peaceful oasis where you can relax and soak up the sun without any distractions. For just 10 euros, you can rent two comfortable sun loungers and an umbrella, and even enjoy a refreshing bottle of water brought to you by the friendly waiter. It's the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the beauty of nature.

The ocean water is absolutely flawless, however, the beach itself is rather compact and packed with people. Despite this, the sea is truly breathtaking. Even if it is windy, the waves are still a sight to behold. The bar is well-organized and serves a variety of drinks, including beer and coffee. A little piece of advice, it is best to arrive early in the morning, preferably around 10-11, to secure the optimal spot.

Hersonisos has a beach that I absolutely adore. The water is crystal clear and there are numerous rocks, caves, corals, and fish, making it ideal for snorkeling. It's not a crowded beach, and it's mainly frequented by locals. However, there is not much shade, so it's important to bring sunscreen. Snorkelers should be cautious of sharp rocks and occasional waves.
