About Volcana beach

Volcana beach is a beach on Kos, facing north-west. Land shelters it from winds from the east, the south-east, and the south, so those winds leave the water flat here. Winds from the west and 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. Nothing to eat or drink is mapped within 300 m, so bring water and shade. The sea is warmest in August, at about 25 °C. It is above 22 °C from July to October.

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?

Typical visitor levels around Kos, month by month.

Kos is busiest in August. In May and October there are about half as many visitors, or fewer. For a flat sea and fewer people, the best months are May and October.

Visitor levels are nights spent in tourist accommodation in the South Aegean region (Eurostat, average of 2023–2025), compared with its busiest month. They show when the area is busy, not how many people are on a given beach.
