Tell me about the beach - what's it made of (Sand/shingle etc.), Access, Features, Accessibility - anything that might help another Barefooter & I'll update the page.

If you have any photos I can use, please send them to photos@barefoot.holiday, letting me know which beach at which location (send a link to this page for instance)

Thanks - The Captain

A very popular place, the abandoned Sulphur Quarries. The beach is small, and not very nudist in the middle of the summer, but in June/September it can be. Tricky to get there (ask for directions several times) and the road is somewhat dangerous at the end before final descent to the beach. Don' t try it with your brand new Cinquecento! My correspondent's rating is 65%.


2007 July: Barefoot reporters tell me that the beach during the high season is totally textiles-only - but, on the left side of the beach (facing the sea) just before the beach ends, a big fallen rock and some smaller ones build a small cove which is not totally hidden but still provides a very good place to sunbathe nude. They were able to go nude into the water and nobody seemed to be bothered. People noticed that a couple was swimming nude and they did not even come closer.

2018 September: the pretty beach and interesting setting were visited by 10-15 people in one afternoon; there was enough place to comfortably skinny dip as most of the people came to see the old mines and not to bath; no one was taking a swim except one young clothing optional couple and a family. Looked as if there were no problems trying, but didn't do it this time. If you climb (be careful, not too easy!) with good shoes to the tunnel on the Northen end of the beach, you can get to a wild part of the coast, totally alone. No good place to stay, though, but good for some snorkelling!

The road to Thiafes is indeed hard work and beware: do not even think of trying to get to the end of the road without a 4x4 or an enduro-bike. My reporters did that, unfortunately, and had a nightmare driving up again. Best to leave the car or the bike at the end of the dirt road above the beach before the old fence of the sulphur mines.
