The sculpted granite of Paros
Not a single beach but a string of small sandy coves between huge granite boulders that wind and waves have carved into smooth, rounded shapes, forming natural "fonts" (kolymbithres). One of the most photographed landscapes in the Cyclades.

About this beach
Kolympithres is exposed in the meltemi — often choppy on summer N/NE days. That comes from the measured shape of the coastline around it and our curated wind records — a seasonal picture, not a live forecast, so check live wind and waves before you go.
The bay at Kolympithres opens to the south-east, so it usually has natural cover from southerly, south-westerly and westerly winds.
Kolympithres has sand underfoot with shallow, gently shelving water — handy for families with young children.
For amenities, Kolympithres has an organised beach, a beach bar, sunbeds, natural shade and parking nearby. There is a campsite nearby (Blue Aura, ~930 m).
