Greek beach named best in the world

·

Greece’s coastline, stretching over 13,676 kilometers, boasts the longest shoreline in the Mediterranean Sea. It’s no surprise that many of the world’s top beaches, known for their crystal-clear waters, are found in this sun-drenched country.

According to tovima.com, Prassa Beach on the island of Kimolos has been voted the absolute best in the world.

Florida Panhandle, a popular U.S. travel agency, conducted an extensive online survey of traveler reviews for beaches worldwide. After analysing over 2.4 million reviews, Prassa Beach on the northern part of Kimolos emerged as the top choice, with 43.56% of respondents praising its ‘crystal-clear waters’.

The results are unsurprising given the beach’s pristine, calm, and shallow turquoise waters, along with its thick, snow-white sand made of white rocks, creating a truly captivating scene.

Recently, Greece also saw two beaches included in Tripadvisor’s Best Beaches in Europe for 2024, as part of its annual Travellers’ Choice Awards.

  • Galissas Beach in Syros ranked 5th.
  • Myrtos Beach in Kefalonia was voted 8th.
  • Anthony Quinn Bay in Faliraki took the 12th spot.
  • Matala Beach in Crete came in 14th.
