Skafi beach in Tilos

If you are looking for a beach where you most likely will be entirely by yourself, then Skafi beach is a good choice. There are few who even know about the beach and even fewer who take pains to get here. The two-piece beach is covered with pebbles mixed with gravel. The beach is exposed to northerly winds and can sometimes be littered.

Once we were four people who hiked to Skafi to have a picnic. When we arrived at the beach, we saw that there were two guys sitting there. They had built a little house out of junk and were sitting outside their little house talking when we showed up. We were not happy because we wanted the beach to ourselves, but it was nothing against what the two guys felt. They were very disturbed by us. We ate our picnic very quickly and then hiked back to the mopeds.

Soon at Skafi beach.




You walk to Skafi in about 45 minutes from Megalo Chorio. The path begins north of Megalo Chorio. At first, you walk along a dirt road (signs are a bit ahead), the road gets narrower after a while, finally the only thing that is left is the track that the goats are using. It is possible to drive a scooter or a car a short distance along the dirt road if you do not want to walk the whole way. There is no taverna or shade on the beach.

If you are interested in bird watching, there is a good chance that you will see some birds along the path down to Skafi. Among other things, we have seen summer goldfinches, bee-eaters and woodchat shrike here.
