Naousa, Kouri, Zogaki

Three successive coves at the northeast of Kythnos, linked together via a stepped footpath. They are sandy, not organized and very quiet.

Gaidouromantra

A large beach with sand and crystalline waters, where you should carry your own supplies. Moving on to the north, you can also swim in the beautiful tranquil coves of Simousi and Skylou.

Agios Dimitrios

Long, sandy and quiet, this beautiful beach is situated at the settlement of the same name. It features tamarisk trees and a few amenities.

Apokrousi

This is one of the largest beaches on the island: Sandy, wind-protected, with tamarisk trees for nice shade and a tavern. Moving on a little further to the south, the popular beach of Episkopi is another option, similar in looks.

Agios Sostis

Located at the northern part of Kythnos, it is an isolated, unspoiled sandy and pebbly beach with green-blue waters.

Kolona

One of the most photographed and scenic beaches found in the Greek islands. It is actually a narrow sandy strip that divides the sea into two beaches with crystalline waters, thus connecting Kythnos to the islet of Agios Loukas. It is not organized and access is rather hard (hiking or jeep), but totally worth it.

Feasts and Festivals

The most prominent feast on Anafi is held on 8th September at the Monastery of Panagia Kalamiotissa. Moreover, “Argonaftika”, the island’s popular cultural and sports events take place in August.
