Tholos is a beach with tropical colours, between Agios Nikolaos and Sitia. The road to access the beach is winding and traverses an olive grove. The beach is mostly pebbled but on its one side it is sandy. When winds blow and the sunbed is being stirred, the waters turn into exotic blue. There are several hotels, rooms and taverns at Kavousi settlement nearby.  Near Tholos you can also find an isolated, small cove, Malavra, where access is only possible by boat.
