Xiropotamos Beach

Xiropotamos Beach, also known as Xiropotamo, is a tranquil and picturesque seaside destination located near the town of Ierissos. It is best known for its lengthy stretch of fine sand and crystal clear waters, offering visitors ample space for relaxation and recreational activities. Despite its beautiful attributes, the beach is typically not crowded, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a serene beach experience. The beach's natural characteristics are a blend of rocky and sandy terrain. The entry point is rocky, but transitions into sandy terrain after about three meters.
