A correspondent notes a small, unremarkable beach on the other side of the port from Milopotas beach. To get there from the town, face the water and head to the right, heading away from the mob. Head up the hill, over the headland and it’s the first beach you come to. It is a reasonable walk of about 15 minutes. My contributor was there in May 1997 and it was pretty quiet. The beach itself is very average but it is an alternative and requires little effort to get to. Of those on the beach, some were nude and some were not. The water was very clear if a little cold (although that presumably depends on the time of year) and the beach itself seemed to alternate between sand and pebbles. The surrounds are not particularly attractive so it doesn’t rate highly but it is within walking distance of the town.

2001 May: there were 9 nudists at the far end but it did not have a good nudist beach atmosphere.

2007 August: says Koumbara has become a developed beach, 100% textile. Maybe better in low season, but in August it’s not recommended for naturism. However, the water is fine and the beach is very clean.

2010 June:  Visitors confirmed this view; there were three rows of parasols and beach umbrellas drawn up, and it was full of families, with not even topless sunbathing in evidence.
