Visit Kolona beach
The stunning beach of Kolona is a narrow strip of land that connects Kythnos with the islet of Agios Loukas. It has fine golden sand and the sea lapping at both of its sides.We got there with a taxi boat from the port of Merichas. The beach can be reached also by foot, if you are hiking and by jeep as the road is pretty rough. If you cannot stand the sun, bring your own umbrella, there are no trees to provide shade and the only facility is a tavern that operates in the daytime.

The beach of Kolona is
basically a narrow strip of land that connects Kythnos to the islet of
Agios Loukas. However, it has a particular charm, partly due to its
fine, golden sand and the sea lapping at both of its sides.
In addition, the beach is surrounded by gentle, quite infertile slopes.
Kolona beach is situated approximately 3 km to the west of Chora village
and can be reached by taxi boat from Merihas, the main port of Kythnos.
It can also be reached on foot, which takes a couple of hours from the
port.
