Monodendri beach guide
Monodendri, about a kilometre north of Loggos on the east coast, is the most organised and among the busiest beaches on Paxos. It's a long stretch of big white pebbles with crystal-clear water.
Beach bars rent sunbeds and umbrellas, there are tavernas and, in high season, a watersports school. It has easy road access and parking, which is rare on Paxos, so it fills up in July and August.
