Kata Beach

Reviewed By Oakley12_12 - Birmingham, United Kingdom

Hard to find words to express the natural beauty of the sand and water at Kata beach, such an array of changing colours. A very pleasant walk of about 1 hour 40 minutes if you are on holiday in Kefalos. There is a sign to the beach a little way past the 2nd church. The track to the beach goes past a goat farm but the free roaming goats move out of your way! The beach was deserted when i visited, just the way i like it. Take a bag with you so you can take some of the plastic rubbish away that has been washed up- straws, bottles, fishing net, a large assortment of beach shoes..and...you've guessed it...facemasks!!

We were staying at the Blue Lagoon Village nearby and decided to get a taxi here. We didn't phone ahead, assuming it was still open (we were there at the end of October) It wasn't! It had closed the day before! Our taxi driver spoke with the owners, Anna and Michael who were busy decorating. They happily opened up the house for us and gave us a tour which was so interesting. They then said they were going to cook pizzas for themselves and would we like some? So we had beautiful fresh pizza, homemade juices and a traditional Greek coffee (something the posh resort we were staying at didn't even do!) in an idyllic setting. Michael even gave us fresh pomegranate picked straight from one of their trees! Added to our delightful visit, their cat had had kittens, so our young children were delighted playing with them. Anna and Michael were just so hospitable, our visit to the traditional house was one of the highlights of our whole holiday. At the end of our visit Anna offered to drive us back to our resort. I can't praise them highly enough. I just hope they get through this awful coronavirus period and continue to prosper.

Exotic Beach

Reviewed By ValzAgain

The beach is a few kilometres along the coast from the Blue Lagoon resort, where we were staying, and well worth the walk from there. There’s a carpark above it, and it should be easy to reach by car. The sand is soft and the water translucent. Loungers and umbrellas are available for hire, but we didn’t bother. Further out into the water, there are flat rocks like those lining much of the coast in this area, but they aren’t a problem. This is a nudist beach. I’m not into nude sunbathing (too pale to tan!), but it’s the best way to swim.

Kavo Paradiso Beach

Reviewed By doppelganger_et - Thessaloniki, Greece

The long and hard drive, is definitely worth the visit. Glorious beach, with many places to chill. There's a small beach bar, but make sure to supply what you need, before sundown. By far the best place in Kos.

Camel Beach

Reviewed By cornescumonica - Bucharest, Romania

This lovely beach is 5 km away from the Kokalakis hotel in Kefalos. From the main road, take a sharp right and the road that goes down to the beach begins. It has no asphalt, it is dusty and has some rocks here and there, but luckily it is short. 2 sunbeds and an umbrella cost 7 euros. There are no more than 20 umbrellas in the central part of the beach and about 12 in the right part. These 2 parts are separated by some big rocks. The beach is actually a small rocky cove, with 2 sandy areas with sunbeds and a 3rd part in the leftmost part which is not organized. The entrance in the sea is a bit difficult, as it is a rocky platform, slippery in some parts. But if you have water shoes you’ll have absolutely no problem. After the let’s say 3m wide rocky platform begins the beauty! The water is so clear and calm and there is like a line parallel with the shore where it reaches your waist so people which can’t swim can also feel very comfortable. There are big rocks at the shore and a bit further in the sea, so fish can be spotted when snorkeling. There is a shower in the middle of the beach. There is no toilet or bar on the beach. One has to go up by car or by foot to one of the 2 taverns for that. The Camel restaurant is quite good, the food is very good, the service is fast and good, the staff is very nice. The view on the cove-beach is just beautiful. The toilet is on one side of the restaurant so if you just want to go to the toilet, nobody will stop you from doing so. The WC is very clean. My husband and I liked this beach so much that we went there 3 times and stayed from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and still couldn’t get enough of it. For us a big plus was that it is not crowded at all and relaxation is the craziest thing you can do there.

Paradise Beach

Spent a lovely day here with my family, lots of parking, sand lovely, sun beds cheap, snack bar good and swimming through bubbles was like being in a Disney movie, amazing experience. I would definitely recommend visiting here if in Kos.
