Kolymbada Beach Skyros

Agios Nikolaos Beach is a charming and very popular sandy shore on the southern coast of Serifos, located in the large bay of Livadi just a short walk from the main port and named after the small chapel that stands nearby. It features fine golden sand and exceptionally clear, shallow turquoise water that remains well-protected from the strong northern winds by the surrounding hills, making it a safe and practical choice for families. The beach is largely unorganized and maintains a quiet, domestic character, with several large tamarisk trees providing a generous amount of natural shade along the back of the sand for those who prefer a more relaxed setting. It is a destination for those who want a simple and authentic beach experience that is easily accessible but feels removed from the busier commercial sections of the harbor, offering a peaceful and welcoming backdrop to the sea. The water is consistently calm and the entry is very easy and sandy for all swimmers, providing an inviting spot for a morning dip or a long afternoon soak in the sun. Access is very easy on foot or by bicycle from the port of Livadi, making it a favorite for local residents and those who appreciate the slow and traditional rhythm of the Cycladic life. This impressive stretch of the coastline offers a unique perspective of the island and serves as a quiet retreat.
