Bay of Cherronisos

4.3 (150 reviews)

Tucked into the northern tip of Sifnos, Cherronisos Bay offers a rare find - a 200-meter stretch of golden sand that stays remarkably calm thanks to its sheltered position. You'll discover this remote haven features natural shade from scattered trees and authentic tavernas right on the beach. The bay's protection from northern winds creates consistently tranquil waters perfect for swimming, making it a local favorite despite its off-the-beaten-path location.
