💡 Tips
- The pebble beaches are beautiful but hard on the feet, so water shoes are a must-have here.
- It's a great spot for kite-surfing and windsurfing when the afternoon thermal winds kick in.
- Aigiali (Aigio) is very close by; take a short drive there if you need larger supermarkets or banks.
- Renting bicycles is a wonderful way to explore the flat coastal roads connecting neighboring villages.
🍽 Food
Try the freshly grilled sardines with a squeeze of lemon at the beachfront tavernas, a simple but delicious local staple.
Enjoy a traditional spread of Greek meze and a glass of ouzo while watching the sunset over the beautiful Gulf of Corinth.
Look for the classic lemon-roasted chicken with potatoes at the traditional, family-run eateries located inside the village.
🛍 Shopping · 🧘 Quiet spots
The wider region is famous for its currants; buy a bag from the local grocers for a sweet and healthy beach snack.
Lemon and orange groves surround the area; look for locally produced marmalades and citrus spoon sweets in small shops.
The coastline is extremely peaceful at sunrise; great for a quiet morning walk before the afternoon thermal winds arrive.
Sit on a bench under the shade of the trees at the small village square for a moment of true local tranquility.
