Porto Germeno - all beaches

The beach was decent, but it didn't quite reach the level of being exceptional. However, we did appreciate the beautiful sunset.

The breathtaking vista of the gulf and mountains is truly remarkable! The beach and sea are simply stunning, adorned with tiny pebbles that add to its natural charm. Additionally, there are several options available for coffee, bakery, and a mini-market, making it a convenient spot for a day trip. Moreover, an open common shower is also available on the beach, ensuring a refreshing experience.

The sandy shore can be reached on foot via a scenic path. We opted for inflatable kayaks, covering just under 4km from Porto Germenos beach (a total of 8 km round trip, taking approximately 2 hours on the water). This journey can be quite exhausting and potentially hazardous, especially in unfavorable conditions. I strongly advise against using an inflatable kayak unless you have prior experience with similar distances. Another beach, located about 300 meters closer, offers a similar experience. The beach itself is stunning, boasting crystal-clear waters teeming with marine life. The only downside was the abundance of seashells scattered along the shoreline, which proved to be a bit bothersome.

Upon our arrival, we were greeted by the warmth of the summer sun. However, as we finished our swim, the sky darkened and I feared a storm was approaching. Yet, a refreshing breeze swept in and cooled the temperature, prompting us to indulge in some delicious ice cream by the shore. While the sea was delightful and the beach was pleasant, there was unfortunately some litter left behind by weekend visitors. Overall, it was a lovely spot for families to enjoy a refreshing swim.

This beach is on the smaller side, but it boasts two excellent fish taverns and cafeterias. Thanks to the geography, the sea is usually calm, making it a great spot for families and people of all ages. During the summer, it tends to get crowded, so if you prefer a quieter experience, it's best to visit during the off-season. While it's a decent beach in the area, it doesn't quite measure up to some of the other beaches in Greece. Personally, I prefer sandy beaches, and this one doesn't quite fit the bill.
