About Nas

Nas is a sandy beach on Ikaria, facing north-west. Land shelters it from winds from the north-east, the east, the south-east, the south, and the south-west, so those winds leave the water flat here. Winds from the north-west arrive over open sea and raise waves when they are strong. It looks west over open sea, so the sun sets into the water. A road leads to the beach. Within 300 m there are 3 tavernas and restaurants and 2 bars and cafés. The sea is warmest in August, at about 24 °C. It is above 22 °C from July to September.

Written from map data (OpenStreetMap contributors), our own measurement of the open sea around the beach and NOAA sea temperatures (1991-2020 averages).

When is it busy?
