Pori beach
6 Larisa Novakova

We didn't have much time to search for a beach, and there weren't any others nearby, so we ended up going to this one. Unfortunately, there were no sunbeds, umbrellas, or coffee shops. The sand was only partially sandy, with rocks and stones on the sea floor. The only positive aspect was the view of Monemvasia.

10 Lena Koval.

Although the beach itself may not be particularly remarkable, the surrounding old town is truly a sight to behold. With its stunning architecture and charming atmosphere, it's easy to lose yourself in the beauty of this Greek gem. So while the beach may not be the main attraction, it's still worth a visit for the chance to explore the town's many hidden treasures.

Damos beach
10 Darian T.

The beach is absolutely stunning, but getting there requires a bit of effort. The trail path leading to the beach is a bit narrow and steep, so make sure you wear appropriate footwear. To fully enjoy the beauty of the beach, it's best to visit early in the morning when there are fewer people around. Unfortunately, some boaters and other visitors may not be as considerate as they should be. However, once you arrive, you'll be rewarded with crystal clear waters that are perfect for swimming and snorkeling.
