Kalogeros Beach

There are very few places on Earth where you can treat yourself to a spa offered by nature. Kalogeros beach is one of the most bizarre places for this very reason. While the crystal blue water of the beach and soft golden sand is a delight to experience, what heightens the great experience of this beach is its clay, which has healing properties. You can cover yourself in the healing clay of the beach while enjoying a day out in the sun to have a literal spa experience. Moreover, the beach has rocks and signature soft Greek sand, making it truly unique.

The Kalogeros beach offers a picturesque view of the island of Naxos, which faces it. You can experience the process of making your own natural clay by scraping clay from the walls, mixing it with ocean water, applying it on yourself and letting the rich minerals in the clay do its magic. You must however carry your own cup and spoon to mix the clay. As the beach is relatively unpopular, you'll find it sparsely crowded on most days, but it is better to avoid the beach during the months of July and August when it is the peak tourist period in Paros. The beach has very limited facilities as it has no sunbeds, umbrellas, or cafés.
