About the Beach

Orkos is a beautiful and secluded beach on the northern side of Paxos. It features a mix of sand and pebbles with very clear, deep turquoise water. The beach is framed by high green hills and olive groves, giving it a very enclosed and private feel. It is an unorganized destination that requires a walk through the trees to reach, which ensures that it remains quiet even in the summer. The water is clean and fresh, providing a swimming experience that is typical of the Ionian islands. It is a spot for nature lovers and for those who enjoy the silence of a hidden bay. The transparency of the sea is a feature that allows you to see the rocks on the bottom. It is a destination for a peaceful day by the water where you can feel the natural energy of the landscape. You should bring your own supplies for the visit.
