Paralia Perivolos is a beach located on the island of Santorini. It is characterized by its tiny black pebbles and hot black sand, which contrasts with the deep blue cool waters. The beach is long and sandy, stretching out a considerable distance, which makes it easy for visitors to find a spot they like.

The sea water is also quite good for swimming.
The beach offers a variety of amenities, including numerous beach bars and restaurants catering to different budgets. There are plenty of comfortable free sunbeds available for those who order something from these establishments. This is a significant advantage over many other beaches where visitors have to pay for the sunbeds and umbrellas. However, the black sand can get really hot, making it uncomfortable to walk barefoot, and the water deepens suddenly.
The beach has a calm and chilled out atmosphere, despite the presence of sellers who occasionally walk by offering massages, pictures, bead chains, etc. The beach is also known for its clean sand and water. However, some visitors may find the sand a bit rocky and uncomfortable. The sea can sometimes be choppy, but it is generally refreshing.
