User reviews
"The beach is very peaceful and serene, but lacks any organized amenities. The pebbles on the beach are light and fine, and there are some interesting stone formations in the sea. However, it may not be the best option for families with young children."
Nat Rashmore
"This beach is a real hidden gem with clear water perfect for paddle boarding and snorkelling. The pebbles are light and fine, making it comfortable to walk on. It's our favorite spot and there's plenty of easy road parking available."

The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Cronidis beach (Kefalonia island) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Cronidis beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
