Velanio Beach is a beach on the Greek island of Skopelos, in the Sporades, where a naturist section coexists naturally alongside a textile area without formal separation. Its pine-backed shoreline is a well-known stop for visitors exploring the island beyond the more crowded Stafylos Beach next door.
Know before you go
The naturist and textile sections are not formally marked, so norms shift gradually along the beach rather than at a hard boundary. Facilities are limited, so bring water and supplies for the day.
