Mandraki is an undeveloped stretch of coastline with three beaches in bays on either side of a cape.
These are Xerxes to the west, Elias to the centre and the Agistros, the smallest to the east.
Elias Beach is located on the north coast of Skiathos. It is a 20-minute walk from Bus Station 23 or you can reach the beach by car or motorbike.
The beach is sandy with shallow water.
It catches the wind if it blows from the north and there can be big waves.
