Mirtiotissa Beach is a wonderful little (unofficial) naturist beach with clear water and amazing landscape! Is situated next to the famous Glyfada beach.
Backed by high rock cliffs, this 80-100 m long and only about 20-30 m wide, beach can accommodate a fair number of nudists without too much overcrowding, although in July and August it can be hard to find a spot.
The great majority of the bathers in the southern part are nudists, there is even a fresh water spring to keep the salt away. There is no beach, but it is possible to lye on big rocks.The Mirtiotissa beach combines great wilderness and tranquility beautifully.
