Lia beach is said to be a naturist beach, and is not far from the port, although best reached by car. The Captain is told that it attracts many naturists and the sea is beautiful even when it is windy.
Lia is reached by a just driveable earth road branching off the tarred road to Psili Ammos. For those walking, it's about the same distance.
2003 September: It was predominantly naturist on my contributor's visits (a couple of times in the morning it was deserted). but if there were too many textiles there is a northern section of the beach, almost separated by an outcrop of rock. The beach is pebbly but the seabed is mostly sandy.
2005: There is a house at the back of the beach, which seemed unoccupied (there are later reports of a family of naturists staying there). There was concern about further development on the beach. Barefooters who visited in July found Lia beach beautiful and naturist friendly. The beach on a Saturday was 70% clothes free, Sunday and Monday 100% naturists. The maximum number of people was about 25 on Saturday. After 1800 there were very few people (max 5), all naturists.
Bring your own water and food as it is a pity to have to leave the beach to go for a drink of water.
2013 July: Three of us visited this beach recently by sea. We moored our yacht just offshore. We laid out on the beach but within a few minutes three policemen appeared and told us to put clothes on. They said nakedness was not allowed. They spoke in English and appeared very soon after we arrived so we suspect somebody heard us speaking and reported us. We had to return to our yacht. So this beach is NOT naturist friendly.
2015 August: We visited Lia beach 3 days. We hiked from Livadi, which takes about 25 minutes. On our way, we asked for directions and a local called Lia beach the "nudist beach", so this seemed to be common knowledge. We were very happy with the beach. The share of nudists varied between 30-70 %, depending of the time of the day. Our impression was that the beach became more nude in the afternoon. Most nudists would stay in the north end of the beach, but some also in the south end. Very nice atmosphere.
2016 June: Lia beach was all nudist.
August Lia Beach was half nudist and half textile, after 14:30 many Greeks showed up and textiles overran nudists by a factor of 5 to 1.
2023 August: Lia its a real nudist beach expecially in the morning and late afternoon. We went there 3 time and we spent all day naked, it was quite windy but we enjoyed so much the beach. Most of the people we saw there they were nude.
2021: Kavafis says: We found Liá to be the best nudist beach of Serifos. Beautiful, with crystal clear waters, relaxed atmosphere, never crowded, yet easy to access. It has a well established identity as a place for naturism. In my 4 times in Liá, it was 100% nudist twice and in the 2 other times there was a clear majority of nudists (two different groups of young Greek textiles showed up in those occasions, but behaved respectfully). If you manage to arrive early, you can stay at the small bay after the rocks (left side) and benefit from a generous shade. There is a hotel functioning right in front of the beach (Nature Eco Living Resort) but this doesn't seem to affect the naturist aspect of the beach - as far as we could see, some of the naturists were actually guests of the hotel.
2023 July: In Lia Bay we were not the only ones who wanted to feel the sun on our whole body. Therefore we can recommend this bay also for the high season.
