Three Greek beaches among the best in the world

·

In anticipation of the upcoming season, BeachAtlas has once again decided to compile its own ranking of the top 100 beaches in the world, gazzetta.gr, has reported.

To create the list, they didn’t just evaluate the natural beauty of each beach, but also the activities available, nightlife, cultural significance, and diversity. Subsequently, a committee voted for their favorite beaches, with Greece securing three spots among the global top 100.

To the surprise of many, Elia Beach in Mykonos claimed the highest ranking among all Greek beaches, specifically landing at number 19 on the BeachAtlas list. It stands as one of the most beautiful and expansive sandy beaches on the island of the winds.

A few spots down the list, at place 24, there is another beach in Mykonos, Paranga Beach, which likely climbed so high on the list due to the entertaining experience it offers. The third Greek entry on the list is Navagio Beach in Zakynthos, one of the most spectacular and unique beaches one can encounter on the planet, which landed at number 71.
