What kind of beach is this?
This beach belongs to a small coastal village. It's usually calmer than a resort or town beach, though a popular village spot can still fill up on the best summer days.

Is the water clean at Plaz Charamidas?
Plaz Charamidas sits on a stretch of coast classed as a coastal bathing site, carrying an official EU Bathing Water rating of Excellent for the 2025 season. Under the EU Bathing Water Directive, national authorities test for intestinal enterococci and E. coli through the season and report the results the following spring — the 2025 rating was published in spring 2026, and 2026's won't follow until spring 2027. In addition to that yearly rating, some national authorities — for Croatia, the national environmental authority — publish individual water sample results during the season itself, ahead of the annual report. It sits in North Aegean.
That rating has been consistent: every one of the 11 classified seasons on record has come back Excellent or Good. If you're timing a visit around water temperature rather than crowds, July–September is the safest bet, with August typically the peak — expect a cooler, calmer sea either side of that stretch. Πύργοι Μεσαγρού — the closest town — sits about ~2.4 km from here.
That “Excellent” label comes from a full season of official water sampling, not a single test — it's one step on a four-point scale (Excellent, Good, Sufficient, Poor) reassessed once a year. Today's actual conditions can differ from the seasonal average, so for a live snapshot see the “Right now” and 7-day outlook panels above. It's been a consistently reliable spot too — the rating has held at Excellent for 11 straight years. There are 5 places to eat within a kilometre — 1η Καντίνα Χαραμίδας is the closest, about ~40 m away.
Frequently asked questions
Is the water at Plaz Charamidas safe right now?
Yes. Its official 2025 EU Bathing Water rating is Excellent, the top classification, and 11 of the 11 classified seasons on record have rated Excellent or Good. It's also held steady at Excellent for 11 straight years.
Is the sea warm at Plaz Charamidas today?
That's placeholder data, not a live measurement: Plaz Charamidas's marine-weather feed couldn't be reached, so the panel above is showing an estimated ~23°C until the real feed comes back. That's the reading right off North Aegean.
What's the best month to visit Plaz Charamidas for swimming?
The most reliable stretch for warm water runs through July–September, based on the modeled climatology. That applies to the water around North Aegean.
What's behind the water quality rating shown above?
The grade comes from a full season of official sampling for intestinal enterococci and E. coli, reported to the European Environment Agency each spring under the EU Bathing Water Directive, which assigns Excellent, Good, Sufficient or Poor. Some countries (Croatia, via IZOR) also publish individual in-season samples ahead of that report; Plaz Charamidas doesn't have that feed yet.
How do you get to Plaz Charamidas?
There's no parking mapped within 1.5 km of Plaz Charamidas, so plan on a walk, or arrive early once it gets busy. The nearest town is Πύργοι Μεσαγρού, about ~2.4 km away.
