The beautiful, long sandy beach Turtle Beach is located in the southwestern part of the Greek island of Kos, about 31 km southwest of the capital. Turtle Beach is adjacent to the large hotel resorts, is lively and very well organised.
Turtle Beach is located on the southern coast of Kos, about 4 km south of the popular holiday resort of Kardamena.Near the beach there are large five-star hotel resorts, so the beach is practically divided into several smaller, organized sections. Turtle Beach is a spacious beach, about 500 m long.
The shoreline is covered with fine, golden sand that continues along the seabed. The entrance to the sea is gradual and, thanks to the soft sand, pleasant, but due to the beach's location on a small spur of the island, larger waves can occasionally come in.
Turtle Beach is organised, alternating between the busier hotel beaches and the more open areas where other visitors can lay out their towels. The hotel beaches are reserved for hotel guests and have all the necessary facilities in the form of sunbeds, umbrellas, showers, changing rooms and tavernas. Among the lively hotel beaches, there is also one small, pleasant tavern, which, in addition to refreshments, offers sun loungers and umbrellas for rent and a quiet environment.
Turtle Beach is easily accessible by car, take the road from Kardamena resort along the coast further south and drive down to the coast after about 4km to where the road starts to turn inland. There is even a bus from Kardamena that comes here.
