The trail moves along the coast and goes side by 2-3 small individual 'pools' with pebbles or sand, fringed by rocks, which they prefer mainly nudist. The Italian beach attracts many people anymore, and formerly frequented by nudists only. It has white sand, shallow waters and is sheltered from the wind. It is located approximately 2km from the town. The Italian name comes from an Italian who has a big part of land at the rear of the beach. In recent years not only frequented by nudists and families with many children. The golden sands and turquoise waters will fascinate you, but at the cost of a big crowd.

The largest beach on the island, ten steps from the village, for those who doesn't want to walk a bit further. Great beach with amazing sand and turquoise waters.
Great long sandy beach with turquoise waters. In the end, a small pier, fishing boats moor or scullery doing regularly.
Pisina beach is exactly what its name implies: a pool (the Greek word for 'pool" is "pisina"). Located on the eastern side of the island, it boasts an amazingly beautiful and naturally carved shape of a round pool.
Large golden sands north of the island. Previously, as was the farthest from the harbor, was an earthly paradise.
On your quest for good beaches in Koufonisia, you can go from Platia Pounda to Pori and continue to a small beach called Gala. Gala means milk in the Greek Language and the beach gets this distinctive name from the frothy waves that one can see in the interior of the caves.
Parianos beach is set on the south west coast of Koufonissia and it consists in a large sandy beach naturally protected from the winds as it is in fact the harbor where the small fishing boats are anchored. This place is ideal for families with young children and people who do not like transportations.
Loutro Beach is not really suitable for swimming. There is a caique repair yard in the bay and the beach is covered with uncomfortable big stones.
A small picturesque harbor and fishing boats moor only excursion boats that carry visitors to the beautiful beaches. Feature attraction is the church of Virgin Mary located on the jetty and is built on ancient ruins.
Beautiful sandy beach with crystal clear waters. Located about ten minutes from the beach of Panagia moor the boat from the top Koufonissi.
At the end of the route that usually makes the boat is Nero, a savage and the most remote beach ofthe island. There you will see several tents, but as it may, there is room for everyone.
Only by foot or by boat: these are the only ways to reach the beach of Pezoulia. If you chose the second, you’d better prefer the left side (from your perspective) of the bay, not only to enjoy the beach but also to take the way that will lead you to Aloni; it’s a large plateau with a huge fig and a sealed well.
