You can spend your whole day there without you noticing it&#8230;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The petal-shaped beach Mylopotas<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Mylopotas beach is located in the southwest part of Ios island and at a distance of 3 km from the island&#8217;s main town (Chora as it is usually called in most Aegean islands). <strong>It is unquestionably the most popular and most visited beach on Ios island. It is also one of the most popular in the <a href=\"\/?tag=kiklades\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cyclades<\/a>.<\/strong> Many argue that it is the best beach that Ios has. And it&#8217;s no wonder. We are talking about a unique natural landscape. A landscape that you can already enjoy while on the road to the beach, seeing it from afar. You get even more rewarded when you set foot there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mylopotas is characterized as a petal-shaped beach since it is located in the homonymous bay, the bay of Mylopotas.<\/strong> You can see it is surrounded by rocks at both ends. These are its limits at the same time. In fact, it has a normal petal shape, with its length reaching 1 kilometre and its width in some places reaching 70 meters. &#8216;<\/p>\n<p>It has almost all the shades of blue, something you will see when you get there. It is a wonderful sandy golden beach with crystal clear water.<\/p>\n<p>If you want something calmer so you can enjoy your dives, Mylopotas shouldn&#8217;t be your first choice. This is because it is an extremely organized beach. Thus, a lot of people choose it for diving.<\/p>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23092 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/%CE%9C%CF%85%CE%BB%CE%BF%CF%80%CF%8C%CF%84%CE%B1%CF%821.jpg\" alt=\"Mylopotas: The petal-shaped beach which has all kinds of shades of blue\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\"> <strong>How to get to Mylopotas<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Another big advantage of this beach is the extremely easy access it has. That is, you can reach it very easily by car in about 8 minutes from Chora of the island. If you like hiking on the other hand, you can do something else.
