Paralia Vlichos

Paralia Vlichos, often referred to as Vlychos, is a quaint pebble beach nestled in the resort town of Vlichos in Hydra, Greece. The beach is renowned for its crystal-clear waters and picturesque views, offering a unique blend of natural beauty and tranquility. Its ground is adorned with reddish-brown stones and pebbles, giving the beach a unique appearance and feel. It is advisable for visitors to wear pebble slippers for a comfortable beach experience due to the stony terrain.

The beach is well-equipped with various amenities for the convenience of visitors. These include umbrellas and sun lounges, as well as facilities for food and beverages, ensuring a comprehensive beach experience. Despite these amenities, the beach retains an undeveloped and serene ambiance, often not crowded, making it an ideal spot for relaxation.

The beach's charm is further enhanced by its tiny waves, although occasionally, sea taxis passing by can create somewhat larger waves. The beach also experiences wind, so visitors might find it useful to bring a jumper.

Visitors can reach Paralia Vlichos from Hydra Port by two main routes. One option is a scenic 40-minute walk, which many find to be an enjoyable part of the overall beach experience. Alternatively, there is an hourly water taxi service for those who prefer a more direct route. Despite the effort required to reach it, the tranquil and picturesque setting of Paralia Vlichos makes it a worthwhile destination.
