The Most Beautiful Beaches in Greece: Discover the Aegean and the Ionian

To make the most of the beauty of Greece, it would be best to have your cruise or a travel package to the Greek islands. An experience you will never forget. Therefore, we detail some of the most beautiful beaches in Greece.

Seitan Limania Beach (Crete)

Until recently, this stunning beach was not known since there was no route to get there. So, anyone who chooses to visit will have to be prepared since no types of services are nearby. Likewise, a new drawback was added: this destination is that it is increasingly popular and increasingly crowded with people. It is advisable to go as early as possible in the morning and avoid weekends. On a trip to Greece you can't miss it.

Fakistra (Pelion)

On your trips to Greece, visiting the intimate and small beach of Fakistra is necessary. Although getting to this beach on mainland Greece is difficult, the reward is a superb panorama and a wild coast of thick sand bathed by a crystalline sea derived from the Aegean. On its northern side, there are two historic grottoes: Panagia Megalomata, rich in stalactites, and a few meters above is Krifo Scholio, home of an illegal school during the Turkish occupation. There is a small hotel, although there are no services on the beach given the isolation of the place.

Myrtos (Kefalonia)

It is the most famous and photographed beach on the island of Kefalonia or Kefalonia, spectacular thanks to the grandiose amphitheater of light rock that surrounds it. The white pebbles and talcum stone give the water mother-of-pearl reflections that contrast with the turquoise sea. The chromatic effect from above is truly surprising. The paradisiacal bay is located in the northern part of the Ionian island of Kefalonia, just three kilometers from Divarata, and to reach it you have to travel a road full of curves.

Navagio (Zante)

Shipwreck Beach - named after a ship that ran aground there in 1980 - on the west coast of Zante (an island within the so-called Ionian Islands) is the most photographed in Greece. It can only be reached by boat, leaving from Agios Nikólaos, and there is often a queue to go down to swim. But nothing clouds the beauty of this beach distinguished by the remains of a ship - the one from the shipwreck - spread out on the very white sand, near some sulfurous hot springs. Another essential destination in your Greece travel packages.

Phalasarna (Crete)

The spectacular beaches of Falasarna, on the western coast of Crete, are a paradise of white sand, in sections pink, next to a cobalt sea, with repaired coves, natural pools, and wild areas. In the longest and sandy part, always ventilated, there are some restaurants, rooms, and hotels where you can enjoy the sea.

Balos Lagoon (Crete)

On the Gramvoussa peninsula, traveling along a rugged path or embarking from the port of Kastélli or Kissamos, you reach Balos, a suggestive lagoon of fine white sand with very shallow and transparent bottoms. Behind the beach is Mount Geroskinos, while opposite is the picturesque island of Gramvoússa, dominated by a Venetian fortress.

Simos (Elafoníssi, Crete)

It is a spit of sand next to a transparent and limpid sea, on the southern side of the island, in the southeast of the Peloponnese. Formerly linked to the mainland, the sea has tropical colors and the beauty of nature attracts sailing lovers and nudists every year. In your travel packages to Greece, you must include this beautiful beach.

Kleftiko (Milos)

The island of Venus, in the Cyclades archipelago, could only have a beautiful beach, with white rock cliffs in the middle of a turquoise sea. The beach is accessible only by boat, between caves and rock walls, while only rubber boats can pass between the white stone arches.

Pidima Tis Grias Beach (Andros)

Less than ten kilometers separate Euboea from the island of Andros, where on the eastern side is the amazing beach of Pidima Tis Grias, which in Greek means "the old woman's jump." It is distinguished by the enormous rock that rises in front of the sea and recalls the story of an old woman who betrayed the local population by letting the Turks enter the castle. Remorse made her throw herself into the sea, where she turned into stone.

Kolona (Kithnos)

Three kilometers from Chora, the beautiful Kolona beach is a strip of fine golden sand surrounded by a crystal clear sea. It can only be reached by boat from Merihas, the main port of the island, or on foot with a long excursion. Without a doubt, a destination that you should include in a travel package to the Greek islands.

Agrari (Mykonos)

On the southern coast of the island, not far from the famous Elisa, lies the spectacular and tranquil Agrari Bay. Sand and light pebbles from the sand, where there are umbrellas for tourists and a nudist area. On your trips to Greece, it is necessary to visit it. Without a doubt.

Kokino Kastro (Alonissos)

It is an Aegean island paradise, with a pine forest and a reddish rock coast on white sand, until you reach a turquoise sea whose bottom hides the remains of disappeared cities. Around, the sea is protected by a marine park.
