How to Plan a Trip to the Gorgeous Greek Island of Kos
"A coastal spot notable for natural thermal springs whose hot water mixes with the sea to create a pleasantly warm bathing experience; reported spring temperatures typically hover between about 107°F and 122°F, offering a soothing soak rather than a scalding one." - Stacey Leasca

The atmosphere is calm and welcoming, with stone beach and clear water that make it the perfect place to relax. The view is stunning, especially at sunset, and the beach is well-maintained and clean.

Amazing little beach! Very-very clear water but it can be a little cold. Pebbly beach so water shoes are needed! Great for snorkeling especially near the bigger rocks - loads of fish. There are some sun beds - half are reserved for hotel quests but the rest are for public use. Can be quite expensive 30 euros for two, but you get great service, a cold bottle of water in ice tub, a drink (coffee or beer) and a towel for that money. It is very relaxing and quiet as well.

One of the best beach in Kos island. The sea here is quite and comfortable for swim. No wind and beautiful view.The plaice is free. But you are welcome to order some tasty salats or pizza from the guys. They have bar and kitchen with is serve for enjoyment after relaxing swimming. Here you can find shower and toilet. Everything is works and cared. Do not miss this place, I’m sure you will like it.

Went to Agios Fokas yesterday. There is a fabulous new bar there that is part of the hotel.
Sunbeds are very comfortable and are free as long as you eat/drink something. The service was excellent and the food was nice and not crazy prices.
The beach is a mixture of dark sand/pebbles. We love snorkeling and this was a great spot for it as the water was crystal clear and swimming around the rocks we saw hundreds of fish!

Water crystal clear, some fish in the sea to view with your snorkel, water temp slightly cooler than another places at 23c, but still very comfortable, food and drinks service and free wifi. What more could you want to relax with at a beach.

Great beach, worth a visit. The sunbeds to be hired to non-hotel guests are limited, so you should be lucky to find one. Still the atmosphere and food was great
