Lygias Lakos Beach (or Lygia) is one of the largest and most impressive sandy shores in Xerokampos, Lasithi.

Located between Charitou Lakos and Xerobia beaches, it forms a central part of the vast coastline that defines the southeastern tip of Crete.

The beach is truly breathtaking due to its scale, covered in fine golden sand and scattered low sand dunes. Its waters are shallow, crystal-clear, and boast the signature turquoise hue of the Libyan Sea, reminiscent of exotic island landscapes. Thanks to its generous size, it offers a unique sense of space and freedom, making it ideal for those seeking a quiet swim away from the crowds.

The beach is completely unorganized, with no umbrellas or sunbeds, preserving the landscape's authentic and wild beauty. A few tamarisk trees provide limited natural shade, so bringing your own gear is essential. It is particularly popular with families due to the sand and shallow waters, as well as those who enjoy long walks by the shoreline.

Access is very easy via the main road running through Xerokampos, with the view of the Kavalli islets accompanying every swim. Lygias Lakos is the epitome of serenity—a place where the only sounds are the gentle lapping of the waves and the rustle of the wind.
