Bisti Beach is not typically crowded, offering a quiet and serene environment for visitors. It is also sheltered from strong winds due to its location and the tiny island opposite the beach, allowing visitors to enjoy calm waters regardless of the weather.
The beach has a snack bar offering simple refreshments such as fruit, Greek salad, toast, sandwiches, and a selection of beverages. However, visitors are advised to bring their own water and snacks as they may choose to stay for an extended period. Sunbeds can be rented at the beach for around €15 for a pair.
There is also a church nearby with scenic views for visitors to explore. For those interested in snorkeling, there is a spot over the hill to the southern beach, which is particularly beautiful near the caves.
