About

Velanidia beach is located on the Myrtoan Sea (part of Mediterranean Sea) and it is in the 401th place out of 401 beaches in the Peloponnese region 134.1 km away from its center, the city of Tripoli. It is one of the beaches of Velanidia settlement, just 1.8 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place, among the mountains.

It is a small bay with green water and gray pebble, so it is recommended to wear 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 etc. It is almost deserted place even during the high season.

6 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Agios Georgios beach, which has a rating of 6.7.

Velanidia beach (Peloponnese) is located outside the Velanidia 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 sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Velanidia beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Velanidia beach (Peloponnese Region) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. 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 Velanidia beach (Peloponnese Region) 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 Velanidia 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.
