Kolona Bay

✨ Hidden gem

You'll find Kolona Bay's unique sandbar stretching 240 meters to connect Kythnos with a small offshore island - making it one of the most distinctive beaches in Greece. The crystal-clear waters and fine sand create a truly spectacular setting that's unlike any other beach on the island. Located north of Merichas Port and near Fikiada Beach, this narrow strip of paradise is consistently ranked as Kythnos' most beautiful beach.
