I went to this Beach in August 2024. It was a good surprise. It doesn't have many parasols to rent and doesn't have a beach bar so it will never be trendy but... what a peaceful and nice bay! Somewhat protected from the waves it offers you a calm sea, excellent for lazy swimming. One thing: Once you enter the water the sea bed is rocky at first (3 or 4 meters) and although it's not that slippery, water shoes are recommended, but if you enter more to the right you will not have that problem and then it's just sand. So, if you're looking for a good and sandy beach with plenty of space to lay your towel in the middle of august and a free park for your car very near, search no more! Bonus: If you have young kids there's a...

It's one of the best beaches in the area for those who likes serenity. It has a stone plates at the beginning, but from the right side corner you can enter the sea easily just on sand and after couple of meters enjoy the deepth. The sand is made from very tiny 🐚 shells parts and it is yellowish. There is no somany sunbeds. One umbrella and two sunbeds cost 4 euro only. There are also two changing clothes boots with showers. There's also a small playground for children and small football pitch. Also popular among locals. On weekend there is more people, but never crowded. Great place...

Nice sandy beach with some facilities (shower and changing hut) and gorgeous views over the peninsula. The water is clear and easy to get into due to a rock ledge that then shelves off around 5 metres in.

There’s limited access to sun beds (probably around 30 ish) that by 11 when we arrived were all in use.

€10 to rent 2 beds and 2 umbrellas.

The beach isn’t particularly sheltered so it was quite windy when we went.

If you want a picturesque beach come here but if you want a lot of liveliness and plenty of facilities,...

⭐️⭐️ (2 von 5 Sternen) Wir haben den Viglia Beach am 14.07.2025 mit unseren beiden Kindern (8 und 10 Jahre) besucht. 🧒👧 Die kleine Bucht ist landschaftlich schön gelegen, allerdings fehlt es an grundlegender Infrastruktur – selbst die vorhandene Stranddusche war nicht angeschlossen 🚿. Der Strand besteht aus grobkörnigem Sand 🏖️ – das ist keine Bewertung, sondern einfach eine Beschreibung. Für uns war das okay, aber gut zu wissen. An der Stelle, an der wir ins Wasser gegangen sind, lagen zudem einige größere Steinplatten 🪨, was mit kleineren Kindern ein gewisses Risiko darstellen kann. Positiv hervorzuheben: Es gibt einen kleinen Kinderspielplatz, ein Volleyballnetz und sogar Fußballtore ⚽🏐 – ideal für Familien, die neben dem Baden auch andere Aktivitäten am Strand suchen. Leider war das Wasser bei unserem Besuch stark mit Plastikmüll verschmutzt ♻️. Beim Schnorcheln konnte man zahlreiche Partikel und größere Stücke treiben sehen – das war sehr unangenehm. Vermutlich hängt das auch mit den windigen Tagen auf Kreta zusammen 🌬️, die womöglich für vermehrten Wellengang und angeschwemmten Müll sorgen. Trotzdem war es erschreckend, wie viel Plastik sich im Wasser befand. Auch am Strand selbst lagen teilweise Müll, angeschwemmte Algen und tote Fische 🐟. Grundsätzlich wirkte der Strand aber ansonsten gepflegt und war nicht überlaufen. Fazit: Eine schöne Lage mit Potenzial, aber durch fehlende Infrastruktur und starke Verschmutzung im Wasser aktuell leider nicht empfehlenswert – besonders nicht für Familien mit Kindern.
