Swimming in Tilos
Tilos is a small, green island between Nisyros and Rhodes, one of the quietest in the Dodecanese. Its beaches are uncrowded and unspoiled, with clean water and a genuine sense of escape from the modern world.
The island's position in the southeastern Aegean means Meltemi winds are milder than in the Cyclades. Tilos's beaches benefit from natural bay formations that provide additional shelter, making swimming conditions reliable throughout the summer.
Swimming season runs from May to October. Tilos is an ecotourism destination — the entire island is a nature reserve — so its beaches are pristine. If you value natural beauty over facilities, this is your island.
Swimming season: May to October
