the Red Beach

The Red Beach is situated just around 20-30 minutes from Matala. U should follow the arrow there but don't be shocked when you will come to the rock :) u must climb it and then climb the small one again and u will see the wonderful view of The Red Beach. It is relatively small but very romantic. If u are naturist then u can't miss it ...
The walk down to the beach from the rock is very easy just open the door and go. :)

Just a good advice for you >:) take a good shoes for the climbing, people in beach shoes should have problems...

arrival

The Red Beach is for naturist and people who likes wild beaches without all taverns and facilities in big tourist centres so take a sun umbrella with u or hire it on the beach for 2 Euro.
