It is recognized for its stunning coastline, clear waters, and beautiful sand, making it a popular destination for tourists. The beach offers a perfect environment for various activities such as swimming, sunbathing, and snorkeling due to the abundant marine life, including various species of fish and octopuses.

The beach is divided into different sections, one of which is known as the 'Blue Beach'. The water is particularly clear near the end of the beach, where large fish are known to swim close to the shore. Though the entrance to the sea at this beach is quite steep, the water is clean and free of algae.

Paralia Achladies is conveniently located near the center of Skopelos and is within walking distance from bus stop 10, making it easily accessible for individuals without a car. However, it should be noted that car access to the beach is limited.

In terms of amenities, the beach is surrounded by an array of restaurants, taverns, fast food establishments, supermarkets, bars, and boat rental businesses.

The beach offers a range of accommodations, including apartments and villas, making it suitable for both families and individuals.
