Gala Beach
Gala Beach is a sandy shore on the island of Koufonisi in Greece. The water remains shallow for quite a distance, making it easy to wade and swim without steep drop-offs.
The beach is within walking distance from Koufonisi village and is most accessible during summer months. The fine sand can get hot in direct sun, so sunscreen and sandals help protect your feet and skin.
