There are countless beaches on the island of evia. In general, you can say that the beaches on the eastern side of the island are steeper and that the current is also stronger here than on the west or the south side of the island. The beaches are usually also not organised and there is no rescue brigade or supervision. Keep this in mind if you are not a very good swimmer and don't wander too far off the coast.

Along the village beach Gallida runs a (quiet) asphalt road and you can easily access this beach along the whole route.
