Tsamakia Beach

Tsamakia Beach, often referred to as Plaz Tsamakia, is a popular beach located in the capital city of Mytilene on the island of Lesvos, within the North Aegean region of Greece. Renowned for its central location and the array of tourist amenities it offers, the beach attracts both locals and tourists alike. Its proximity to the city center and Midilli Castle further enhances its appeal.

The beach is characterized by its calm and serene environment, making it an ideal spot for rest and swimming activities. Despite its proximity to the city center, Tsamakia Beach manages to maintain a tranquil atmosphere. The beach is spacious and graced with clear water, though the shoreline is not particularly suitable for entering the sea. To counter this, stairs and two piers have been provided for easy access into the water. Visitors are advised to be cautious of sea urchins along the shoreline and to use shoes when entering the sea from the coast.

Tsamakia Beach is a Blue Flag beach, a certification that attests to the excellent quality of its waters. It is organized and offers a variety of amenities including changing cabins, showers, sun recliners, and umbrellas. Additionally, a lively beach bar serves iced coffee, cocktails, and snacks to visitors. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy a game at the beach volleyball court available on-site.

The beach is fenced and there is an entrance fee for access. Once inside, visitors can avail themselves of amenities such as sunbeds, umbrellas, tables, and chairs. Despite the entrance fee, the beach is usually crowded, especially during the peak tourist season.
