Folegandros is one of the most beautiful and special islands of the Cyclades, which captivates visitors with its traditional architecture, wild, natural landscape and fairytale beaches, which seem to have come out of a postcard! The coastline of Folegandros reaches 31.5 kilometers and from north to south you can find countless beaches, picturesque bays and beaches to dive. We have found and present you the five best beaches on the island, which if you are there, it’s worth a visit!
1.
It is the most popular beach on the island, and there are many who characterize it as the “diamond” of Folegandros. The setting is like a film, with imposing, steep cliffs rising in front of the coast, which has white pebbles and blue waters. On the beach there is no road, but you can get there either by hiking, following a 30-40-minute trail, or taking a boat from the port of Karavostasis, which is more enjoyable and relaxed. Whatever your choice, the only sure thing is that the beach will leave you the best impression!
2. Galf
If you like calm and want to make the ultimate digital detox, then we have the perfect beach. Galfos is a small, picturesque beach with turquoise waters, accessible only on foot, following a 15 -minute journey from neighboring Agali, which captivates visitors with its unpretentious beauty and simplicity. There are a few stream -free rooms around it.
3. Agios Nikolaos
The beautiful beach of Agios Nikolaos is located on the south side of the island, a few minutes away from Tourist Agali. The golden sand is mixed with the pebbles, and there you will find a natural shade on the trees around the coast. The beach was named after the picturesque chapel of Agios Nikolaos, which dominates the small dock. And because swimming always opens the appetite, on the beach you will find two taverns serving the island’s local specialties.
4. Saint George
It is one of the most beautiful beaches of Folegandros. Saint George has sandy beaches, turquoise waters and a few pines that offer their precious shadow to the bathers. However, the beach is exposed to the North. Before constructing the pier in Karavostasis, several boats and boats had their base here to carry products from Milos and Sifnos just opposite. Hence the “wires”, the one -room buildings to keep the boats. The picturesque chapel of Agios Georgios operates once a year, at the feast of Saint. You will reach this beach following a 25 -minute path from Ano Meria, or by vehicle via a dirt road.
5. Livadi
This list concludes with Livadi, a popular and long beach with sand and fine pebbles, easy to access the road and is just 1.5 km from the port of the island. The beach is surrounded by many orchards, orchards and wild low vegetation, and is protected by strong winds. This beach, like most of the island, is not organized, so going there make sure you are properly equipped.
