Skiathos Xanemos beach

General information

Located at the extreme end of the Skiathos Airport runway, Xanemos Beach is a pebbly partly organized beach with a few umbrellas and sunbeds. Along the seafront, there is also a canteen serving refreshing drinks, but, otherwise, there are no beach facilities.

If watching airplanes fly right above your head as you enjoy the sun and the sea sounds like fun, Xanemos is definitely the place to head for. However, if you choose to go swimming at Xanemos, you need to bear in mind that it is exposed to strong northern winds, so the sea is usually choppy.

Xanemos is easily accessible by car and bus from Skiathos Town. The ruins of a prehistoric Pelasgian settlement can also be seen not far from the beach.
