Taking a Holiday at Kolona Beach, Kythnos, Greece

Kolona Beach on Kythnos Island, Greece, is a breathtaking destination for those looking for a serene holiday by the sea. Its unique land formation—a strip of sand connecting the island to a small islet—creates a stunning double-sided beach. This natural wonder offers visitors the opportunity to enjoy two different marine environments within mere steps of each other.

Beach Type

Kolona Beach is characterized by its fine golden sand, which feels soft underfoot. The water is crystal clear, enhancing the visual appeal and inviting beachgoers for a swim. While there are some pebbly areas, particularly at the edges where natural rock formations provide some interesting underwater landscapes, the majority of this isthmus-like stretch is sandy. These rocky outcrops nearby make it an excellent spot for snorkeling and diving as they attract a variety of fish and marine life.

Beach Activities

  • Swimming: The calm, clear waters on both sides of Kolona Beach are perfect for swimming, making it a family-friendly destination.
  • Snorkeling: As mentioned earlier, the presence of rocky areas offers great opportunities to explore underwater life.
  • Sunbathing: With its soft sand and scenic setting, sunbathing is a popular activity here.
  • Boating: Visitors can rent boats or join guided tours to explore surrounding coves and nearby islands.
  • Photography: The unique geography of this beach makes it an exceptional spot for photography enthusiasts.

Accommodations

While there aren't any large resorts directly on Kolona Beach due to its natural preservation, there are several cozy accommodations options close by:

  • Kythnos Bay Hotel: Located in Loutra just a short drive from Kolona, this hotel offers comfortable rooms with sea views.
  • Xenonas Afroditi: A family-run guesthouse in Chora (the main town) provides authentic Greek hospitality and charm.

Areas to Stay In

  • Loutra: Known for its thermal springs and close proximity to Kolona Beach; it’s ideal for those looking for relaxation.
  • Chora (Kythnos Town): Stay here if you'd prefer being close to local tavernas and shops while still being within driving distance from the beach.
  • Merichas: The port area has a variety of accommodation options and is convenient if you're planning boat trips around the island.

Beach Amenities

Kolona Beach maintains a relatively unspoiled character; however, some basic amenities include:

  • Sunbeds and umbrellas available for rent
  • A few tavernas near the beach provide food and drinks
  • Limited parking area close to the beach entrance

Please note that amenities may vary depending on the season or management policies at any given time.
