21 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Marathias 3rd beach, which has a rating of 7.6.

Avra beach (Thessaly) is located outside the Marathias settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
