Filaki beach

Aria Kallias
This beach is an excellent choice for those who prefer to bask in the sun without any clothing. Our stay with our caravan for three days was truly incredible! The serene atmosphere and distance from the bustling city made for a peaceful experience. The restaurant on the premises offers a wide range of meals from breakfast to dinner, however, it does close early, so it's advisable to bring along some snacks. Overall, a great spot for a relaxing vacation.

You can access this fantastic pebble beach with crystal-clear turquoise water from two directions: Plakias or Sellia. The latter route may be a bit challenging to navigate, but the breathtaking views of the sea from the mountain make it worth it. You can enjoy free sunbeds by ordering a drink at a nearby bar. It's an ideal spot to spend a scorching summer day.

This beach is one of the best I've ever visited. It is incredibly clean and definitely worth a visit. The waves here are quite powerful and can toss you around, but the beach itself is entirely sandy, which adds to the fun. It's a perfect spot for kids as they can go as far as 100 meters into the water and still be able to stand.
Korakas beach

The beach was satisfactory, but on the day we visited, it did not meet our cleanliness expectations. Nevertheless, we believe it was just an unfortunate coincidence.
