Memi Beach
Another beach located very close to Koroni. Memi beach is one of the most organized beaches in the area as, in addition to beach bars, it also has a parking area, a volleyball court, a football field and showers. It has crystal clear waters and a wonderful sandy coast.
Peroulia Beach
About 1.5 kilometers of golden sand, gorgeous waters, dense vegetation and just 8 kilometers from Koroni, Peroulia Beach is definitely a beach you don’t want to miss. You can even reach the beach by… elevator! A large part of it is organized, its waters are shallow and it almost never has a wave. So, if you want to enjoy a quiet swim in crystal clear waters, Peroulia beach is the ideal choice.
Gargarou Beach
Very close to the village of Harokopio, you will find Gargarou. A very small, pebbly beach, with crystal clear waters that deepen smoothly and great views. It is not organized so it would be good to get the necessary things in advance.
Agia Triada Beach
Or Lachanou, it is a wonderful beach 3.5 kilometers from Koroni. It got its name from the small church that is on the beach. Its waters are crystal clear and it has powdery sand. However, it is relatively difficult to access, as it is only possible via a path and there is no beach bar, so it is good to get the necessary things in advance. It is an ideal choice for those who don’t want crowds.
