BEACHES

The beaches of Greece is a very voluminous and interesting topic about which you can even write a whole book and there will be no end to it. Greece, such a seemingly small country, has a coastline of 15147 kilometers, of which, according to unofficial data, the beaches available for bathing are approximately 30%. So this is approximately 4500 km. beach areas. Most likely you will ask me how such a small country has such a long coastline. It’s very simple. Greece has 6,000 islands and islets, of which only 227 are inhabited, and only 40-50 islands known to tourists. And the mainland of Greece is completely indented by bays and mountain ranges. From the most remote place on the mainland to the nearest beach, only 137 km. But I am here to tell you not about the number and length of Greek beaches, but about their diversity, indescribable beauty and crystal purity.

Tourists often ask me. Oksana, we are going to Greece for the first time, advise us a place where beautiful beaches. My answer to this question is always the same. Open the map of Greece, close your eyes and point your finger at the map. This is where you got there and go there will be so many beautiful beaches. This means that beautiful beaches in Greece are everywhere you go.

On this page you will find the most beautiful and interesting beaches in the areas where we have holiday homes. Accordingly, when you have decided where you are going and have chosen a house, you can look here and select the beaches that you will add to your holiday plan and decide to visit.

I want to show you other beaches, little known and very beautiful, the advantage of using which today remains with the locals, since only they know them.

So here is my list of the most interesting beaches of Attica just for you.

Charakas Beach

Charakas Beach is located in the Legrena resort, close to the resorts of Sounion, Anavyssos, Palea Fokea and Lagonisi is also close. Sandy beach with a gentle entrance to the sea. There are two beach bars on the beach with sun loungers and umbrellas. A small island right opposite the beach protects it from the waves and is usually very calm and not windy there. I recommend this beach for families with small children. Sun loungers and umbrellas on the beach are free, you just need to order something from the bar, cola, coffee, etc. On weekends at the height of the season, I advise you to come to the beach early before 09:30 in order to have time to take an umbrella in the forefront.

Kape Beach

KAPE beach is located in the resort of Legrena, close to the resorts of Sounion, Anavyssos, Palea Fokea and not far from Lagonisi. KAPE Beach is a small sandy beach with a gentle entrance to the sea, ideal for families with children of all ages. There are no sun beds or umbrellas on the beach, but there is a bar at the top of the beach where you can buy coffee and cold drinks. The beauty of KAPE beach is that there you will feel like on a desert island. The atmosphere of the sea and wildlife. Also, there are rarely many people on the KAPE beach. with the disadvantages of the beach is that the last 150m. the road is a rocky road with no asphalt and you have to go down 50 steps before you get to the beach.

Agios Nikolaos beach in Anavyssos resort

Agios Nikolaos beach is located on the Saronic coast of Attica in the resort of Anavyssos. An amazing sandy beach with a gentle entrance to the sea and a beautiful modern beach bar Nuevo Loca Beach Bar. The main charm of this beach is that it is protected by a small peninsula that is literally opposite the beach. In windy weather when there are waves on the sea, choose Agios Nikolaos beach in the resort of Anavyssos, this is what you need.

Beach Anavissos

Beach Anavissos can be called the longest beach on the Saronic coast of Attica. The beach is 2 km long. , on the beach there are 7 very good beach bars with sun loungers and umbrellas and a lot of places where you can sit just by the sea on the sand. The beach has a playground with swings and in general the beach is ideal for families with children. Sandy, with a very gentle entrance to the sea and not deep at all. Diving enthusiasts will have to paddle the water for about 50m. to get to a deep place where you can dive. 30m. from the shore the water is just above the knee. I think your little ones will be delighted with this beach.

Nisos beach in the resort of Anavissos - Saronida Nisos Cafe Bar

Yes, apparently the time has come for something youthful. This beach is suitable for families with children and young people. The disadvantage is that to go down to the sea you need to go 50 steps. At the top of the beach there is a very nice bar where you can order cocktails or coffee while admiring the amazing sea view. The beach itself looks like an island, there are rocks where you can jump and dive from stones, there is sand and a gentle entrance to the sea. Even fish can be caught from stones. I really like this beach and you should visit and rate it in reviews.
And most importantly, visit Nisos Cafe Bar during sunset, the experience and views are simply unforgettable.

A wonderful and very popular beach. Has potential for everyone, both for babies and for parents and young people. Here you can play rackets, rent a cano or a catamaran. And for the little ones there is a children’s complex with inflatable slides that works after 18:00.

Mavro Lithari means black stones. And the structure of the beach is exactly such sand mixed with black stones, very interesting. And yes, stay on Mavro Lithari until you know one of the most spectacular sunsets you can enjoy on this beach while lying on your sun lounger.
