Myrties beach

Myrties is a large, not crowded beach northwest of Potia, the nearest village of Asos. It is strewn with small dark pebbles, an ideal place for a carefree pastime with kids, sunbathing, swimming. Quiet narrow streets, white houses in flowers. It takes about an hour to get from Agius Nikolaus by public transport.

Beach description

The beach is landscaped, there is a parking lot, showers. Toilets, umbrellas, sunbeds are managed by beach cafes. The water is always warm, the entrance is even. It's pretty shallow on the edge, further the bottom deepens. You can go diving on the rocky shores on the side of the beach and exploring the grotto on the left side. From the upper viewing decks offer beautiful scenery.

The beachline is open to the south, the land protected by rocks from the north, so it is alwais quiet and a little warmer than elsewhere. The area is decorated with the Blue Flag of UNESCO.

In the village you can walk, have lunch, take a lot of colorful photos. There are cafes and taverns along the beachline. Pine trees, cypresses, and the hospitality of the locals give rise to a special microclimate.

What you can see?

  • There are interesting monasteries, excavations are being conducted in some places.
  • Guests will be interested in traditional Greek architecture.
  • The main local attraction is the Venetian castle with a magnificent sea view, covered with impregnable cliffs.

When is it better 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.
