Plathiena, Beach in northern Milos, Greece
The expansive shoreline of Plathiena combines sand with scattered pebbles, extending along a semi-sheltered northern cove of Milos island.
The beach sits at the end of a traditional agricultural valley where local farmers have cultivated olive trees for generations.
Local families gather at Plathiena during summer evenings to watch the sun descend behind Antimilos while children play in the warm shallows.
Visitors can find parking spaces near the shore, rent sunbeds under tamarisk trees, and purchase refreshments at the beachside tavern.
The seawater at Plathiena reaches exceptionally high temperatures in the shallow areas, creating natural pools with bathwater-like warmth.
