Elena Mavridis

Elena Mavridis – First Immersion in Greece in 2009 My journey to Greece began with an unexpected gift of fate. As a philology student, I won a grant for a summer language program in Athens. What was planned as a three-month academic adventure completely transformed my life. Stepping onto the land of Hellas, I felt an inexplicable thrill – as if my soul recognized the place where it was destined to flourish. After completing the program, I made an impulsive decision to stay for another six months, working as a translator for a small tourism company. Every weekend, I dedicated to exploring new corners of the country – from the majestic ruins of Peloponnese to the secluded beaches of the Cyclades. For over 16 years now, I've been working as a Greece expert, creating unique journeys that reveal the authentic soul of this ancient land. I live between Athens and the island of Naxos, constantly expanding the map of my Greek discoveries. Greece is an amazing world where myths come alive in every stone, and history breathes in modernity. Greeks are incredibly open people for whom philoxenia (love for guests) is not just a tradition but a way of life. Over these years, I have developed more than a thousand personalized itineraries for travelers from around the world, created a popular podcast about Greece's hidden treasures, published an illustrated guide to Greek regional cuisines, and collaborate with leading travel magazines as an expert on authentic Greek destinations.

Paradise Beach

The Paradise beach is probably the most famous beach on Kos Island.

Due to the crystal clear water and fine white sand the place looks like an exotic beach. So a day or even a few hours spent on the beach can become a real highlight of your vacation on Kos, Greece. You will certainly enjoy the wonderful atmosphere of the place!

The beach is equipped with very comfortable sun loungers with umbrellas available for rent for 3 euro per person.

The beach also offers a small bar and a complex of water rides and attractions including banana-boating, water skis and others.

Water rides and attractions

Not far from here there is a small water park right in the sea. Of course it can hardly be called a real water park. It’s rather a complex consisting of a few slides and inflatable rocks in the water.

But I suppose the place may be very exciting for teenagers.

Water park in the sea

As for the water it is considered to be very cold due to the cold currents. However, it is probably very enjoyable in hot August days.

Another interesting fact is that the Paradise beach is often called the Bubble beach. Right near the coast you can see bubbles caused by volcanic gases coming from the beach bottom. It’s a rather unusual and exciting natural phenomenon.

The bubbles are not like those you see in Jacuzzi and they are without any odor. However, it’s quite exciting both for adults and children to walk between such sources of water bubbles.

I will give you a small tip that could be useful. I was lying on the water surface in a place with plenty of bubbles trying to relax as much as possible. The sound of bubbles made such a calming effect on me that I nearly fell asleep and went out of the water in a very relaxed state.

Crystal blue water of Paradise beach

The Paradise beach is not the only beach in the area. A chain of beaches with very nice sand and crystal blue water stretches 13 kilometers east from Kefalos.
