Myrtiotissa — clothing-optional beach
Vatos, Corfu, Ionian Islands
A small sandy cove beneath green cliffs on Corfu’s west coast. The wooded approach and open Ionian views give it a secluded setting close to Vatos.

Directions & Parking
Getting there
Approach through Vatos towards Myrtiotissa and the monastery on Corfu’s west coast, rather than following the road to Glyfada beach.
Parking
The municipal guide recommends leaving cars roughly 1km above the beach where lawful parking is available; the final road is narrow with limited turning room.
Finding the naturist area
Continue downhill on the steep access lane to the small sandy cove. Naturist use is within Myrtiotissa itself; keep the road and monastery approach clothed.
