✓ Manually calibrated shoreline

The orientation of the shore and the shelter of the bay were checked one by one on the map for every beach — they are not derived automatically.

On northern Paros, within the bay of Naoussa, Kolymbithres stands out for its impressive granite rocks, sculpted by wind and water. They form small natural coves with shallow waters, ideal for families. The bay offers natural protection from the meltemi wind, while the sandy beach and eastern exposure ensure calm swimming pools — literally and figuratively.

Wind & waves: when to go

The beach faces east. With westerly winds the air flows offshore and the water near the shore stays flat; with easterly winds the sea builds up waves onto the beach. The bay is naturally well sheltered — conditions often remain swimmable even on breezy days.
