Vourni Beach Tinos

The small Vourni beach called by the locals Ballos beach, we find it in the southern part on the west coast of the beautiful Tinos Island less than two kilometers away from the Kionia village considered a bit the summer bathing place of the Greeks which despite tourism has managed to maintain a relaxed and typically Hellenic atmosphere.

Collected in a bay, it has a small coastline of soft golden sand, transparent, crystalline and almost always calm waters given its position that shelters it from the winds, an unmistakable blue sea and gently sloping seabed perfect for families with children and for those who like to enjoy long swims.

Behind tamarisk trees that give shade and respite during the hottest hours as well as giving the landscape a postcard atmosphere. Vourni beach despite its small size and quite outside the tourist circuit, is equipped with sunbeds and umbrellas but if you are more free you can spread out your beach towel in the free part, as long as you find your corner.

As far as catering is concerned, there is a bar for a fresh drink or a light and quick snack, on the beach while above the beach there is a tavern where you can make yourself comfortable, admire the view and enjoy delicious dishes of classic Greek cuisine and local based on fresh products.

Vourni beach is very well preserved, always clean and almost perfect as it is very well cared for by the managers of the bar and tavern who are particularly keen to keep intact the gift that Mother Nature has granted them.

To break up the day, you can take a walk and reach the small church of Agia Talassini just above the beach with its typical architecture with its blue dome and immaculate white walls, usually open for visits but we recommend as it is a sacred place to have a suitable clothing.

For those who perhaps want to stay a night in this corner of Tinos, they will have the opportunity to sleep in one of the rooms that are rented out for short periods (usually just one night) which are located near the restaurant.

It is necessary to have your own vehicle first of all whether it is a four or a two wheeler is always your choice. Keep the village of Kionia as a reference point, from any part of the island you will be heading south-west following the road signs. Once you arrive in Kionia you will find at the end where the asphalt ends a dirt road on the left, take it and in less than no time you will have reached your destination.

You can also orient yourself with the sign towards Ballos Tavern or Bianco Beach Bar which will take you to the beach.

A beautiful and different day in a place where tranquility and relaxation are at home without having to give up comfort, beautiful sea and original nature, we really think that the reasons are enough to make it one of the things to do in Tinos.
