Xi Beach

Awesome beach! Pretty long so always possible to find your own spot. Walk down to the clay sand area for some nutrient-rich clay that is good for your skin. Plenty of bars/restaurants for day beers and food. Try to avoid peak times for bus tours or when the nearby resorts are busiest.

Beautiful beach with red sand/soil and clay walls that you can apply it on your skin 😉. The bars close to the beach offer an umbrella with two sunbeds for 20€, but they don't offer services on the beach, I had to go at the bar to order. I would not pay this amount of money with no service on the beach.

Doesn’t recommend anyone here as it is not red at all. Definitely not. Not even pink. It is just yellowish sand where you see everywhere . waste of my 60 euro to come here( cost of whole family ferry and taxi return)

A very beautiful and quiet beach. The red sand was very good and gave the beach a beauty. There was also the other part with limestone that was a cure for the body. You just have to be careful because a small part could break off. There was also a sign to guide you. The beach was very good even for small children. Parking was free. There was also an umbrella for those who didn't have one with them, but I don't know the price because I didn't need it.

This reddish sand ⏳ beach has Close parking area that makes this beach 🏖️ ideal for all ages. It's possible to cover your body with clay that's melting in your hands. There's a saying that it makes you look younger - it didn't work on me. The only negative side was a lot of plastic bottles and other garbage left by the beach side as you might see 🙈 in my pictures. It seems like it might be from previous garbage 🗑️ dump but that's only my opinion.

Xi Beach on Kefalonia is truly a one-of-a-kind destination, and it absolutely deserves a five-star review! From the moment you set foot on its distinctive reddish sand, you know you're in for something special. What really sets Xi Beach apart is its incredible natural feature: the clay cliffs. This isn't just a pretty backdrop; it's an interactive, natural spa experience! You can easily collect handfuls of the soft, grey clay from along the shore, mix it with a little seawater, and spread it over your skin. It's an invigorating and fun activity, and your skin feels wonderfully smooth and refreshed afterwards – a truly unique and free beauty treatment! Beyond the amazing clay, the beach itself is simply stunning. The shallow, calm waters stretch far out, making it perfect for families with young children or anyone who enjoys a leisurely dip. The contrast of the striking red sand against the crystal-clear turquoise Ionian Sea is absolutely breathtaking, especially as the sun begins to set. Xi Beach also strikes a perfect balance between natural beauty and convenience. There are well-organized sections with sunbeds and umbrellas, as well as charming beach bars and tavernas serving delicious local fare. For those seeking a bit more adventure, water sports are readily available. Yet, the beach is long enough that you can easily find a quieter spot if you prefer.

nice beach (Red one) not beautiful as Petani beach but here u can find 2 very lovely restaurant bar: Alaya and Baywatch (not to miss at sunset dinner time; but unfortunately Alaya no offer fresh fish menu 😳😒

Water filled with vegetation in different plastics thrown is by tourists. Beach is narrow it fits 1 lane of sunbeds. Water is not deep, can be ok for kids to play in the sand and enjoy water. Nothing much to do and se around though.
