Megali Ammos, Sandy beach in Skiathos, Greece.
Megali Ammos is a broad sandy beach stretching along the southeastern coast of Skiathos for about 800 meters. The shoreline is lined with Mediterranean vegetation and backed by clear waters.
The beach became a main destination for visitors in the 1960s when tourism to Skiathos began to grow. This early popularity helped establish it as a gateway to the island's coastal attractions.
People gather at the waterfront restaurants to enjoy fresh fish dishes while watching the rhythm of the harbor and daily beach life unfold. This is where locals and visitors naturally meet to share meals and conversation.
Sunbeds, umbrellas, and water sports equipment are available for rent to make your day comfortable. Regular bus service connects the beach to Skiathos Town, making access straightforward.
Strong northern winds between July and August create ideal conditions for windsurfing. These seasonal winds attract water sports enthusiasts who time their visits during these months.
