Vitali beach
Vitali is a charming secluded beach in a rocky landscape. It is located 35 km from the capital, 15 of which are the road from Gavrio. The last part of the path is unpaved and rather narrow, only subject to a motorcycle or an SUV. A difficult bumpy driveway, especially in rainy weather, is rewarded with a swim in the clear turquoise waters.

Beach description
The place is wild and non-equipped. As a rule, there are few visitors here. On fine pebbles, one can see umbrellas here and there. The shadow of rock cliffs can also save you from heat. The same rocks serve both as a springboard and a diving-board. Diving from height is the favorite hobby of motley companies of teens spending their free time here.
Older people and small kids take sun baths on the beach, lying on their own towels. You can find a sling chair in the beach bar. The absence of traditional beach equipment is fully compensated with wonderful transparent water, magnificent views, excellent diving and fishing.
Vitali is loved by family and romantic couples, and young athletes. Relative silence, privacy, and considerable labor contribution on the way here favor the relaxed recreation at silent dash of the waves, tender sun, and the view of nice white boats mooring the beach from time to time.
The beach tavern dines and wines with tasty local food.
When is the best time to go?
Greece - a country with a long length from north to south, so the recommendations will vary depending on the place where you are going. The holiday season begins in May and reaches a peak in July-August: there are too many tourists, and the temperature on the southern islands reaches 40 degrees, which may still not play a role on the beach, but certainly not suitable for sightseeing. So the best time to relax in Greece is the end of spring-beginning of summer or September-October.
