About

Ammos beach is located on the Ionian Sea (part of Mediterranean Sea) and it is in the 3th place out of 401 beaches in the Peloponnese region 99.4 km away from its center, the city of Tripoli. It is one of the most beautiful beaches of Kritika settlement, just 3.2 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place with very picturesque views, among the mountains. It is partially covered by trees which give natural shade.

It is a small bay with crystal turquoise water and gray sand, so you don't need special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers, hikers etc. It is partially crowded during the high season.

Ammos beach coast is free for all. It has no amenities, only nature. .

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities, sea kayaking.

2 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Lampes beach, which has a rating of 8.3.

Ammos beach (Peloponnese) is located outside the Kritika 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.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Sapientza island and the correct question is not how to get to Ammos beach, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.

Untouched shore with no facilities available. It is worth noting that it is probably the only spot in Greece where the sand in the water is white, while the sand on the beach itself is slightly darker.

This beach is truly a sight to behold. The sparkling, crystal clear waters are simply mesmerizing and will leave you in awe. It's the kind of beach that you'll never want to leave, with its perfect blend of natural beauty and tranquility. For a mere 15€ per person, you can easily reach this paradise from Methoni port. Don't forget to bring along some refreshing water, tasty snacks, and a cozy beach umbrella to enhance your experience. However, be aware that there may be some pesky wasps buzzing around, which could be a turnoff for some.
