Skala Mistegnon Beach
Ce qu'en disent les visiteurs
The beach is lovely; you can spread your towel and sit under the trees. The sea is slightly pebbly but crystal clear. You should definitely visit.
I've been to many beaches, and I can say this is the best. The sea is crystal clear. Spotlessly clean.
About this Beach
Skala Mistegnon est un paisible village de pêcheurs sur la côte nord, avec une plage de sable et de galets, un petit port et d'excellents restaurants de poisson qui servent la pêche du matin sans chichis. L'atmosphère est on ne peut plus locale : ce n'est pas une plage touristique mais un front de mer en activité où les bateaux de pêche sont plus nombreux que les baigneurs. La baignade y est agréable sans être remarquable, mais les tavernes de poisson sont authentiques : simples, fraîches et bon marché. Skala Mistegnon séduit les visiteurs qui jugent une plage à la qualité de son déjeuner plutôt qu'à la douceur de son sable.
Avant de partir
À quoi s'attendre
Le petit port donne le ton — des barques de pêcheurs amarrées au quai, des chats qui guettent près des filets et une odeur d'iode qui imprègne tout. Assis en terrasse au bord de l'eau, vous partagerez souvent l'espace avec des familles locales venues pour le poisson frais, non pour le paysage. La plage est une toile de fond reposante plutôt qu'une destination en soi.
Quand y aller
De mai à octobre pour se baigner confortablement ; venez en semaine en juin ou en septembre pour découvrir le village dans sa version la plus paisible et la plus authentique.
Comment s'y rendre
Depuis Mytilène, suivez la route côtière orientale vers le nord ; le trajet dure environ 25 à 30 minutes et aboutit directement sur le front de mer du village.

It's an absolutely pristine beach, over 500 meters long. The only downside is a small problem that can be solved with pebble (stone) shoes. This isn't a problem for swimmers. The water is crystal clear. Parking is free along the shore. The sunbeds belong to a business there, but you can also spread out your towel and sit there for free. Someone from the business comes to the sunbeds and you order something for yourself (water, beer, ice cream, freshly squeezed orange juice, etc.). It's a wonderful environment. There are also tree shades. I recommend not going too late in the morning (for shade and sunbeds).

This is a fantastic place to swim and relax. The beach is made of small pebbles and there are several trees over the beach that offer plenty of shade. If you bring your own ombrella you may struggle a bit to set it up although we always managed in the end. The beach is equipped with wc, showers and changing cabins nicely located at regular distance... Obviously free! The beach has received the blue flag for the quality of the water so bring your diving equipment! Please beware that as you enter the sea there are some large stones so some may want to use sea shoes. Keep in mind that the water gets deep quite quickly. There is a mini market nearby and 3-4 tavernas that serve great Greek food so you'll have definitely a great time!

One of the best beaches on the island. Especially for those who love pebble beaches...

Since this year it also holds a BLUE FLAG, 500 meters of beach!!! Wonderful place, very close to Mytilene, with a few shops for food and a mini-market for the essentials, as well as several rooms to rent. It has showers and changing rooms, as well as the essentials that require the blue flag. The Municipality should take more care, a. with a direct road, {the existing road has some dangerous bends due to visibility}, b. with more care in cleanliness, c. with stricter observance of the rules for pets, which now pollute the beach, d. with awareness of professionals and residents for the observance of the above rules... It is a wonderful place for recreation - swimming and relaxation
