About this beach

Balos usually stays sheltered when the meltemi blows. 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.

Balos is oriented towards the south-west, so it usually has natural cover from northerly, north-easterly and north-westerly winds.

Balos has sand and pebbles underfoot with shallow, gently shelving water — handy for families with young children.

For amenities, Balos has an organised beach, a beach bar, sunbeds, natural shade, parking nearby and food nearby.
