Porto Schinoussa Beach Schinoussa

Porto Schinoussa Beach is the main and most accessible beach on the island of Schinoussa, located right in the sheltered bay of the harbor of Mersini. It features a shore of fine golden sand and exceptionally calm, shallow turquoise water that remains remarkably clear despite the arrival of small yachts and local ferries. The beach is partially organized with a few sunbeds and is shaded by large tamarisk trees that line the back of the sand, providing a cool and fresh environment for visitors. The surrounding area is vibrant with several traditional tavernas and cafes that serve fresh seafood and local wine right by the water edge. It is a destination for those who want a convenient and relaxed swim in a setting that reflects the quintessential charm of the Small Cyclades. The water is safe and the entry is very easy for all swimmers, making it a safe choice for families. The atmosphere is welcoming and full of local character, showing the daily life of the island residents. It is a practical choice for a morning dip before exploring the rest of the coastline. The views of the harbor are excellent.
