Eristos beach in Tilos

Eristos is the longest beach on Tilos and lies approximately 8 kilometres from Livadia, and about 2 kilometres from Megalo Chorio. The beach - which is both long and wide, and swallows a lot of people - is composed of coarse sand mixed with pebbles. Some think that Eristos is the best beach on Tilos, but I do not, I like Lethra and the beach in Livadia much better. Parts of the beach is lined with tamarisk trees that gives much needed shade.

The beach is named after the large valley called Eristos. The majority of the island's crops are found here, including fruit and vegetables. In the valley is also Tilos water reservoir, but there is usually not that much water in the large dam. Walking around the Eristos Valley in the spring is a great pleasure because then it blooms everywhere and it is so beautiful. If you are interested in birds, there is a lot to see in the Eristos Valley between the beach and Megalo Chorio.

Eristos has developed to a small (with the emphasis on small) tourist resort in recent years. Here are a few tavernas, two kantinas, one minimarket and a few hotels. Between the beach and Megalo Chorio there are two taverns: Tropicana and Filoxenia. Filoxenia is the best of the two. Here you sit and eat in a sprawling garden with surrounding vegetable gardens. Another good taverna is En Plo which is closer to the beach in Eristos.

If you drive the dirt road as far as it goes to the left you will reach a narrow path that continues along the coast. If you follow the trail for about 10-15 minutes you will reach two small beautiful beaches. The first of the beaches is so small that it can only fit a few there. The first beach I call Kalimera beach and the second Mikro Eristos beach.
