A string of sandy south-coast beaches west of Psathi facing Milos, with tamarisk shade and a couple of tavernas.

Practical

Wikivoyage: Bonatsa is a long golden-sand beach with shallow water and tamarisk shade, good for families; Kalamitsi has a sandy and a pebbly beach side by side with views of Milos; Aliki, east of them, has shallow water near a salt pan. Greeka puts Kalamitsi and Bonatsa about 3 km south of Chorio and mentions beach bars and tavernas at Kalamitsi. OpenStreetMap maps Tavern Kalamitsi and a café at Aliki. These beaches face south, so they are sheltered in the meltemi; anchor off in sand in settled conditions (no published depths).
