Galissas Beach is located at about 8 km from Ermoupolis. It is one of the most popular beaches on the island of Syros. Shallow, crystal-clear waters - probably the cleanest waters in Greece - compose a small paradise for families with young children. The beach is well-organized and provides facilities such as sunbeds and umbrellas for rent, showers, toilets and a small beach bar. What I loved most about this beach is the transparent, blue waters. I could swim for hours!
The beach tenderly kisses the small village of Galissas lying on a hill, only a few metres away. Galissas is the most important tourist resort on Syros. However, if you like high-class, trendy beaches, I recommend Mykonos next door! The quaint village of Galissas boasts a few tavernas where, you will enjoy homemade Greek food and fresh fish, right out of the fisherman's boat.
I don't think I'll ever forget Syros. It's yet another magical island in the Cyclades.
