Pali Beach Nisyros

Pali Beach is a long and unique beach located on the northern coast of Nisyros, near the traditional fishing village of the same name. It features dark volcanic sand and pebbles with clear blue water that is a shade of turquoise. The beach is partially organized with some tamarisk trees providing natural shade and a few facilities nearby. It is a destination for families and for those who want a quiet and authentic beach day on a volcanic island. The water is usually calm and the entry is easy for most swimmers, though the dark sand can become very hot under the sun. The surrounding landscape is low and features the interesting geology of the Dodecanese. It is a spot for nature lovers who appreciate the connection between the sea and the volcanic history of the land. You can find several traditional tavernas in the nearby village serving fresh local fish. The atmosphere is welcoming and reflects the slow and quiet rhythm of life on the island.
