Information about Tingaki beach
Tingaki has one of the finest and longest beaches on Kos with miles of white sand stretching in both directions on a huge bay. Tingaki is popular with children who can play safely on the wide beach and in the clean clear water that remains shallow for a long way out to sea. This is a great beach for sun worshippers, swimmers and children. Tingaki holidays can enjoy plenty of watersports, with windsurfing being especially popular. There are miles more beach to enjoy at the neighbouring resort of Marmari.
Facing north, the long, deep and sandy beach gets its fair share of windy weather so windsurfing is popular. In the most popular part of the beach there are enormous numbers of sun beds for visitors. The beach is narrow in places but made up of good white sand backed by low dunes and you can wade out a good way offshore, making it good for children. Sand improves the further west you go until you reach the salt pans where there are flat sands and shallow seas. There is a nude beach here if you wade past the outfall from the salt lake. Further west the land turns to a marsh that can stay wet well into June, making this an ideal stopping off point for migratory birds, tame terrapins and zillions of mosquitoes. Beware pitching too near the shore - passing cruise liners can send waves crashing in and only those near the dunes will survive the wash.
