Mersinidi beach is one of the most beautiful beaches of the island and within walking distance of the city, only eight kilometers northeast where is the monastery of Panagia Myrtidiotissa.

Mersinidi beach actually consists of two beaches, one north of the church and another south of the church. They consist of sand and pebbles. Both have clear water but this south of the church is more quiet and secluded.

You can park your car on the road and from there you will find different downhill trails for both beaches. Its the nearest beach in the City of Chios, from our Chios Beaches list.
