Does Oia have a beach?

Oia is located on the edge of a high cliff, so access to the beaches from it is somewhat difficult. Flat beaches with easy access to the sea are located on the other side of the island – from the north and east. Despite this, tourists who chose Oia as a place to stay can also enjoy swimming in the sea.
