If you are looking for a place to enjoy your bathroom away from the cosmopolitan to the organized beaches, take the necessary (umbrella, refrigerator and mat) and left for…

Erostopilia – Porto Rafti

Turning left to Porto Rafti and driving a few kilometers you will meet Erostopilia, a beloved, deserted beach near Athens. This choice with the intrigue name is a small, windless bay with sand and pebbles, especially beloved in couples. The trees on one side of the beach offer a little natural shade.

If you prefer more remote choices to come to little charm. You may find it difficult to find it, but you will be rewarded for your trouble and you will surely understand why it is included in the best beaches of Attica. Little Hamolia is one of the most deserted beaches near Athens. It offers absolute peace and quiet, clear and turquoise waters, but also pine trees for natural shade. All this will make you feel too far from the rhythm of the city.

How to get: After parking near a fish tavern, just outside Chara (which has its own, larger beach), you walk to the end of a hillside peninsula, until you reach a tiny, sandy bay that is a real “hidden ornament”.

The list of the best beaches of Attica cannot include it … In other words, there is no way we can bring you here and not reveal the real diamond. Prosili is a small bay just outside the helical road above Porto Germeno that makes you feel like you are on a Greek island, like no other beach. We are talking about turquoise waters, trees almost to the sea and nothing but sand and fine pebbles. A fantastic getaway that will release you!
