The beautiful sandy beach of Psilos Gremos is located in the southwestern part of the Greek island of Kos, about 33 km southwest of the capital. Psilos Gremos is particularly popular for its peaceful surroundings and beautiful natural scenery.
Psilos Gremos Beach (or Psili Gremos) is located on the south coast of Kos, about 7 km from the popular resort of Kefalos. The beaches on this side of the island are characterised not only by their crystal clear sea colour and fine light sand, but especially by the steep drop from the main road down to the coast. However, the name of the beach also means "high cliff". Psilos Gremos beach is quiet, remote from the larger tourist resorts of the island.
The surface of Psilos Gremos beach is made up of fine sand mixed with smaller pebbles, making the entrance to the sea pleasant and safe. The sea in this area is crystal clear, with calm waters and a beautiful blue hue. The place is suitable for all ages, even families with children will be happy here. The beach is also partially protected by rocky cliffs, which provide natural shade and create a pleasant atmosphere for relaxation.
Psilos Gremos is a fairly large beach that is only partially organized, which contributes to its peaceful atmosphere. Visitors will find sun loungers and umbrellas for rent, but the rest of the beach is left free for everyone to find their own spot and relax in peace. During the peak summer season, there is usually a water sports centre where you can rent sports equipment and try some adrenaline-pumping water activities besides swimming or snorkelling. There are several small tavernas and bars in the area offering refreshing drinks and traditional Greek snacks.
The beach is accessible by car, parking is not immediately nearby. Psilos Gremos is located at the turn off the main road connecting the capital Kos and the resort of Kefalos. From the main road, there are several branches in this area leading to the south coast, which are marked with the names of the different beaches - from west to east there are the beaches of Agios Stefanos, Camel, Paradise, Lagades, Markos, Psilos Gremos, Magic, Exotic and Chryssi Akti.
