Paradise beach in Kos

There are several beaches in Greece called Paradise beach. Some examples of that are Paradise beach on Thassos, Paradise beach on Mykonos (where there is also a beach called Super Paradise beach) and Paradise beach on Kos. Of the "paradise beaches" I have had the honour of visiting, all but one have justified the name. If you are the right target group, that is, because they are usually quite exploited.

As written before, Kos has been gifted with many beautiful beaches. Which one of the beaches that is best, is difficult to answer, it depends on what kind of beaches you prefer.

Paradise beach is a paradise beach.

Paradise beach is considered by many to be the island's finest beach, and maybe that's why the beach is called as it does. Paradise beach is one of several very nice beaches in this part of Kos. Nearby are the beaches of Kefalos, Agios Stefanos, Camel, Banana, Markos, Sunny and Magic.

Paradise beach partly lives up to its name, because it is definitely a fantastic beach with white powder-fine sand, perfect sandy ground and crystal clear water. The beach is long and is ideal for families with small children.

The sea and the sand are truly paradise and are perfect for small children.

Why does the beach not really live up to its name? Well, it's mostly because you rarely are alone in paradise. The beach is usually chock-full of people and it is crowded between the sun beds. Hordes of tourists are lying, sitting, playing and floating in the water. Others ride on water toys, like ringo and banana boat, ride jet ski, play beach tennis or build sandcastles. If you are here during low season it certainly looks different. Above the beach are a couple of tavernas, but there are no hotels or rooms for rent.
