Paralia Milopotamos on the Pelion Peninsula

This is where the mountains meet the sea. It is a double-beach that is separated by a rock arch which creates two distinct coves. It has crystal clear water, unique underwater rock formations, cliffs for diving, plenty of shade and a beach bar with sunbeds for rent. You walk down a steep, semi-paved and slick slope to get there.
