"Secluded sandy coves of Kionia beach" Top 5 Page for this destination Tinos Island Things to Do Tip by om_212

Kionia beach is located 2 km to the south from Tinos. it stretches for several kilometers from the old harbor. At the beginning it is relatively narrow and consisting mainly from pebbles. If you are looking for a refine sandy beach you will have to walk to the Tinos Beach Hotel. The beach in front of the hotel has sun beds and umbrellas (free for the hotel guests). There were just few people there since it was already off the season (mid-Sept.), but I would imagine that it can get pretty crowded in July-Aug. we walked further down the beach and have discovered several lovely sandy coves. Every time we went to the cove, we were the only people there. Very private, very relaxing. No need to say that water and the quality of sand were superb. it was the best “beach experience” of the trip.

P.S. if you are into pebbles or stones, this beach has great choice of marble-looking little white pebbles, which will look great in combination with Santorini black and red sand

Directions: 3 km from the center of the center of the town; the beach starts in the old harbor and streches beyond the Tinos Beach Hotel
