Details
This is west of Myrtos on the southeast coast, an excellent place to stay, reached by cycle or car on a coast road, which is now mostly metalled apart from a short rough section - which is passable with a little care (Sept 2010). Cycles can be hired in Myrtos. The 3 miles takes 40 minutes by bike and 10 minutes by car. The village of Tertsa has tavernas, and a laid-back population which is tolerant of nude swimming and sunbathing. At least 90% of users were nude and the setting is very pretty. The beach to use is 400 yards west of the taverna between rocky outcrops.
2005: Barefooters who visited in June and September described these as very relaxed beaches just west of Tertsa. Drive over the steep track over the rocks (see picture). Then you get to a beach divided in 2 parts by some rocks. The beach at Tertsa closest was textile. The more western part was nude. Also when walking further around the next rocks you get to a 800 metre-long beach which was completely empty. Great for nude walking! Only downside: the man sitting there all day watching the nudes, sometimes even with binoculars. That was their June visit. They returned in September and shared the beach with a nice German couple. The same man was again there. This time he started taking pictures of the naturists and so one of my reporters walked over to him and took photos of him too. The Captain has been provided with one of these photos. I have not published it but might think again if I receive similar reports…
2006: A report from September describes it as a wonderful beach just after the village, where nearly everybody is naked. The water is clean, and the beach is only sand. No facilities.
2010: - no change in the beach situation; there was about 12 - 20 people over the day in both parts of the beach with 90% nude.
2014: I would recommend this fully nude beach just after Tertsa. Very nice and 100% nude.
2015: Confirmed
2016: (by DoccyT) There seems to be an incursion of textiles, especially between the rocks which we assume mark the start of the nude section, and the rock which sticks out into the sea. Still some naked people before the second rock. Not to be deterred, I dropped my shorts immediately after the first rocks. Everyone nude after the second. Stray textiles wander past and look shocked. Meh. As we left (after several hours) I didn't put my shorts on again until just before necessary - some textiles who had based themselves the other side had wandered over and found the sight of naked men amusing. My boyfriend and I will not be put off. Let's reclaim this beach, people! Update on 18 September We've returned for the final ten days of our holiday. Someone (not me - my Greek spelling is better - has painted ΠΑΡΑΛΙΑ ΓΥΜΝΗΣΤΩΝ [sic] NUDISTS on the rocks at the entrance to the nude beach. And it was totally nude apart from one Greek couple, who weren't at all bothered.
2021: Eleven miles west along the coast from Myrtos is the remote village of Keratokampos. In September 2021 we spent a couple of days on Armenopetra beach one mile east of the village. Very quiet with some other naturists. Its also possible to walk south along the coast for 20-30 minutes.
