Before you go

What to expect

Paralia Skala Polichnitou draws a largely local crowd — fishing boats often sit at anchor nearby while families spread out along the clean shoreline. The water is calm and clear, and the row of tavernas behind the beach means you can move straight from a swim to a fresh-caught lunch without going anywhere.

Best time to visit

Late May through September for swimming; July and August bring the warmest water but the beach never gets overcrowded.

How to get there

Drive south from Mytilene toward Polichnitos, then follow signs down to Skala Polichnitou — the total drive is roughly 45 to 50 minutes along the main southern road.
