Kalamitsa Beach

Sheltered beach on southern Skyros with calm water and a low-key village feel

Kalamitsa Beach lies on the southern side of Skyros, where the island opens into a broader, quieter coastal landscape than the busier beaches near Chora. The bay is sheltered, the water is usually calm in settled weather, and the atmosphere stays practical rather than polished.

It is a good choice when you want a beach day without making the whole trip about beach bars. Bring what you need, check wind conditions, and combine it with a slow drive through the island's drier southern half.
