Kambia is a small cherry-growing village in the most northern part of Chios. You can stop at the village and take an hour hike down the Kambio ravine. It is a sort of a botanical tour called Kambio trail. Follow a small stream all the way to its outfall into the sea. The trees provide shade throughout the trail. It is really wonderful if the weather is not too hot.
First bay of the beach is right near the road, but it may be little bit uncomfortable because it can be seen from the road and there is some garbage behind the beach.
Turn to the right (facing the the sea) and after a small rockfall you will see another large bay.
The beach is large and consists of medium-sized white pebbles. The sea is quite rough, rocks in the water are quite large and slimy so entry into the water can be a challenge. Swimming slippers are obligatory. No facilities, no natural shade on the beach.
2011 June: Barefooter who visited the beach found it empty - no people at all. He tried both bays, swimming was quite inconvenient and strong wind did not allow to install an umbrella. Walking by the beach is quite enjoyable but not for barefooters - the pebbles were rough and hot. Driving from Volissos by serpentine takes about 1 hour but the beach itself (in the barefooter's opinion) is not worth the long way. It can be a good place to stop if your goal is to see mountain villages like Kambio.
