A beach on an uninhabited islet (boat only)
A small beach of white sand and pebble with crystal-clear water, on the uninhabited islet of Sarakiniko off southern Skyros (not to be confused with Athens’ Glyfada).
No road — only by excursion caique (from Pefkos beach or Linaria port, often with the "Blue Cave"). Essentially wild.
