Skopelos Beaches: Elios beach in Skopelos Greece

Elios beach Skopelos: Eleos means mercy and Elios is where the island's patron saint Reginus is believed to have delivered his flock from a fearsome dragon.

The beach is pleasant enough but this part of the island is intermittently affected by deep earthly rumblings. The unsightly village was created after the 1965 earthquake dislodged the hillside village of old Klima. No matter what people say about the ugliness of the village (and when will it ever be finished), it has to be said that the large beach is pretty good .

You can drive right up to it and its the only one with showers. The village has plenty of tavernas and mini markets. There are also many sand and shingle coves along the coast, most notably the beach at Holvolo though access is difficult from the SW end of Elios beach.
