The beach of Agios Konstantinos is located on the southern side of Astypalea. The beach is actually a lovely, long and sandy cove with sparkling blue waters. The landscape around the beach is mountainous and rocky with a few scattered orchards that lend a wild and rugged beauty to the area. Protected from mass tourism, the beach has just the basic amenities, including some sun beds and umbrellas. There is a tavern offering tasty sea food, but it is open only in summer. A little ahead Agios Konstantinos, there lies the tranquil and quite deserted beach of Tzanaki, popular among naturists, although it has not yet been declared an officially nudist beach.
