Having received various enthusiastic reports about this beach, the Captain finally made it here in June 2003, and liked it so much he was back a year later. It is a fantastic clothes-optional beach, with officially sanctioned free camping. The beach is mainly sand and the swimming seems safe. A new snackbar / taverna built behind the beach has not adversely affected the naturist possibilities here, despite the understandable concerns of some Kendros regulars (in fact it sells high quality and unusual snacks and drinks at very reasonable prices - dress to go to the snack bar). The bar is in any event largely screened from the beach itself by a stone wall. It also means that toilets are available to the many campers at Kendros which must be an asset.

Staying in the main town of Donusa this beach is about a 15 minute walk and is amazing. Very quiet in the morning. It gets busier in the afternoon. About 90% nudist, just a few scattered textiles (usually with groups of nudists).

Lovely taverna at the back of the beach with reasonable prices (a litre of chilled water was the same prices as in the supermarket in town - 1 Euro)

I think this is one of the nicest most relaxed and friendly beach I have been to in 20+ years of Greek nudist beaches! One half is sand the other half more pebbles/rocks. The Captain thought this beach utterly wonderful - certainly in the top 5 naturist beaches in Greece, and rated it 95%.

If you want to check the beach out, it is 1 km east of the port, a 20 minute walk over a hill or a short bus ride from the port: a sandy medium-size bay. Past correspondents reported it 99% nude, and rated it 95%+. There were quite a number of wild campers there in May and they were not all nude all day. Even in August there are plenty of people nude. Follow the tarmac road east over the hill to the right of the church and at the sign veer right on the older bit of road before you can see the beach. Then follow the relatively new natural stone path down the hill to the beach.

Another correspondent describes the beach as very beautiful and purely for nudists. Everyone camps in tents and walks into town in the evening for meals at the tavernas.

2003 June: there were about 15 tents on the beach and some in the field behind the taverna. Some of the people sitting in their tents were (partly) dressed, but almost all of them were naked when they went for a swim. What my correspondent thought especially nice was the high percentage of young people of both sexes. The tents are from 2014 banned from the beach, the only "constructions" are some bamboo shades made by the campers from the fields behind the taverna, and this is only during high season. Without tents there is more room for sunbathers, naturists and others.

2006: A Barefoot reporter found it too crowded with tents, without any regulation, and the people in the tents were not always very respectful of the environment. We cannot say that the beach was "dirty", but near the stone wall there was a lot of rubbish left by those people (plastic bottles, plastic bags, etc. etc.). The Captain always encourages everyone to take their rubbish with them and leave only footprints in the sand. Littering of this kind can threaten the continued existence of beaches like this as naturist paradises.

After having sunbathed, walked and swum nude on the well-known Kendros beach, it is always a great pleasure to relax (dressed) in the inviting taverna, serving good food and fresh drinks with nice music (not too loud). Friendly and peaceful atmosphere, and not crowded at all (at least at the end of May, when my reporter visited).

2015 June: On our visit 60% nudist. Nudist/Clothing-Optional seemed mixed along the (very windy) beach.

2016 June: Last year there were lots of naturists, sadly this year it was maybe 50/50. But still a great beach for naturism.

2018 August: at least 70% textile when we went through the beach (on three occasions, mid-day, end of August) seemed to improve (from a naturism point of view) a bit on September 1st… Mixing of textiles and naturists not an issue. Free campers are now a bit behind the beach but too many makeshift shelters do not make for a really pleasant view (in my opinion)

2019 May: Simply the best place for nudism on the island. The beach is nice and there's plenty of space for everyone. We visited on three different occasions: there were always some textiles, but the majority were full nudists. Average of 30 people on the beach each time, and still doesn't feel crowded. There's the wreckage of a German destroyer named Orion just 40 metres out on the far side of the beach (you can easily spot it, it's the dark linear zone in the water), and if you're hungry you can simply chill and eat terrifically in the organic farm/taverna next to the beach. A further report from Drosso in late July 2019 says: A mixed beach. With about 20 % totally nude. All the beach is nudist, not only one part.

2020 June: Another contributor endorsed the view expressed above - definitely a beach worth visiting. About 60% nude, not crowded, with a nice atmosphere and a real mixture of nationalities.

I endorse the above - a great beach, lovely sand, a short walk from Stavros, so well worth visiting especially if there are no boat or bus trips to other beaches. Good taverna - we probably spent as much time in the taverna (dressed) as we did on the beach (undressed) as it was hot but with gusting wind . On 11 June at 4pm there were less than 20 naturists on the beach (18?) and less than 5 (3?) clothed people. Went back on 12 June and spent the day there - we took our own beach umbrella for shade, but it was so windy one of us had to hold on to it all the time, while the other swam.

2021 September: Similar experience as the report of may 2019. Real naturist beach. Around noon around 50-60 people. In the afternoon 60-70 people. Quite a lot but not crowded. At least 80% nude. A mix of young Greeks (couples but also 2 families and 6 single nudist ladies) and older North-European couples. Of the textiles most women are topless. This year more claimed places near the stone seawall according to a regular visitor.

2023 May: Excellent true naturist beach. Max circa 20 people, but often far fewer. Mostly nude but some textiles, however all very relaxed. Many couples. Superb swimming, plus snorkelling to the wreck and along the rocky coastline. Gorgeous food at the Taverna as well.

Second week of June: Same experience. Throughout the day 20 to 40 people. Always majority of 1/2 to 2/3 naturist.
