Κίνι
⛱️ Sunbeds & umbrellas👨👩👧 Family-friendly
A sandy bay in front of a working fishing village on the west coast, fifteen minutes by road from Ermoupoli. The water is shallow and calm, there are sunbeds and a line of tavernas along the front, and because the bay faces west this is the island's sunset beach — the tables fill up for it. A good base if you want the sea without giving up on dinner.
