Agia Galini Beach

Agia Galini Beach is a serene location known for its clean sea and calm waters, thanks to its protected coastline.

The beach is well-equipped with amenities such as changing rooms, fresh water showers, and even wheelchair accessibility to the water.

The beach also offers free municipal parking, with plenty of parking spots available behind the taverns. Access to the beach is via a tricky hill road, but the beauty and tranquility of the beach make the journey worthwhile.
