Paralia Chochlaki is a unique beach located very close to a nearby village. It is reachable by passing the headland to the north via a path. The beach is characterized by its round volcanic stones that make up the seabed, giving it a unique and beautiful appearance. However, these stones can make the entrance into the water fairly steep and difficult, especially when the sea is rough. Therefore, it is advisable for visitors to bring beach shoes.

The beach is also known for its clear and transparent water. Despite its rocky nature, the beach offers amenities such as sun umbrellas free of charge, and a couple of tamarisk trees provide natural shelter from the sun.

Paralia Chochlaki: Weather Today

📅 Monday, September 7, 2026
Today is a mixed day for the beach, offering bright sunshine but challenging conditions due to active winds. While the skies will remain perfectly clear throughout the day, the air temperature reaching 31.1 °C feels warm, and with a UV index of 6.95, proper sun protection is essential. The sea temperature of 27.5 °C is inviting for a swim, but be aware that the water is quite choppy with noticeable waves, which may make entering and exiting more difficult than usual. The significant wind makes lounging on the sand feel a bit restless, as you will likely deal with flying grains of sand. If you are a strong swimmer, the water is warm enough to enjoy, but casual beachgoers might find the breezy, wavy environment better suited for relaxing under an umbrella than for a calm day by the shore.
