A Mosaic of Raw Beauty
Ikaria, the island of longevity and laid-back rhythms, boasts a coastal front that reflects the wild and mysterious charm of its natural landscape.
The Exotic Allure of the South
The southern part is dominated by Seychelles beach, accidentally created by a landslide in 1985. With turquoise waters, granite rocks and white pebbles, it is an exotic bay accessible via a footpath or by boat. Further along stretches Faros Beach, the largest in the south, shaded by tamarisk trees and offering views toward Samos and the ancient Tower of Drakanos. The area provides ample accommodation and dining options.
The Vast Sandy Beaches of the North
In the north, Mesakti beach steals the spotlight with its golden sand, ideal for children and surfers alike, overlooking the picturesque chapel of the Ascension. Next to it, Livadi beach enchants visitors with its natural lake and blue waters, while Armenistis beach remains one of the most classic tourist destinations featuring beach facilities.
History, Nature and Mesmerising Sunsets
For lovers of uniqueness, Nas beach combines history with nature: the Chalaris River flows into the sand, beside the foundations of the temple of Artemis Tauropolos, offering a breathtaking sunset. Closer to the centre, Kampos beach impresses with its vast stretch of land and shallow, although often wavy, waters.
Hidden Treasures for Explorers
Finally, Ikaria hides treasures for explorers. At the northeastern edge of the island, Iero beach offers a sheltered cove, ideal for diving in underwater caves and shipwrecks. From cosmopolitan coasts to secluded corners such as Magiza and Bariama, every beach on the island of Ikarus invites the visitor to an experience of "supreme positive energy", affirming the uniqueness of this island in the heart of the Aegean.
