Plakias
On the Beach
The main and well orgnanized beach in Plakias with azzure cool waters, chill beach bars on the sand, small family tavernas and supermarkets on the road above. The sandy shoreline stretches nearly from the one side of Plakias to the other ending at the landmark vertical clifs of Paligremnos. For those who like adrenaline there is a climbing path to explore!

Drinks
Chill out by the shore with selected cocktails, refreshments and snacks. A plus is a shisa corner with a variety of flavours. When the night falls the upper floor and its balcony becomes a very lively bar with music.
