General information

Megali Ammos Beach Alonissos: The beach of Megali Ammos is located 7 km north east of Patitiri, the capital of Alonissos. It is small and pebbled with crystalline waters. The surrounding is quite wild and unspoilt with a unique natural beauty that transmits immensity. Megali Ammos beach lies on the west coast of Alonissos. The road is unpaved and a little rough. Traveling from the north west in south direction by the coastline, Megali Ammos is the first beach, followed by Tsakalia, Gialia, Vrisitsa, and Mikros Mourtias.

On the other hand, many people also think of Megali Ammos as a whole region, and not as a single beach. It is actually true, in the wider region there are some small coves, ideal for private swimming and sunbathing. Although these beaches are more difficult to reach, the effort really pays off, as you will meet an idyllic environment. The crystal clear waters and the wide area of pine forests create a unique sense of relaxation.

Regarding the facilities, it is worth to make clear that the mentioned features about this beach and this whole area have been preserved along time in part because of its lack of shops, restaurants and other amenities. This assures certain level of privacy and tranquility to the place, in spite of being really beautiful and enjoyable.

Another interesting fact about this beach is related to archaeology, since some big vertebras of a prehistoric animal have been found nearby, and they still can be seen by heading to the northern side of the island. In fact, the entire Alonissos is very appreciated by palaeontologists, because of the Neolithic tools that have been uncovered on the area of Kastraki, at the inner part of the island.

In conclusion, apart from the great exploited areas more oriented to tourism, Alonissos also has some virgin terrain that remains unspoiled for those who like to experience this type of unusual places. The great convenience of this variety of options is that there is no need to suffer from deprivations in order to know such places, since when taking the proper measures. A great day can be spent with no problems. On the other hand, when missing the crowds, it is time to get back to Patitiri, where visitors can enjoy a delicious meal after a great day at the Megali Ammos beach.
