Fodor's Expert Review Polemi Beach

This long stretch of inviting sand, about 10 km (6 miles) east of Kefalos, is also known as Magic Beach, and is just far enough from town to remain wonderfully undeveloped. Backed by scrub-covered dunes, the sands offer little except some sun-bed concessions and are washed by calm, crystal-clear waters. The privacy afforded by this location means that it has also become something of a enclave for naturists, who gather at its eastern end. Amenities: parking (free). Best for: nudists; solitude; swimming; walking.
