Limanakia Coves

Small coves east of Kokkinia for a quieter coastal walk and swim.

Why go

Beyond Kokkinia, the shore folds into a series of small coves. Walk beside the water where the path allows, and choose a spot that feels right for the day. In summer, even these little beaches can be busy.

Plan it from Agios Dimitrios

Pair Limanakia with Kokkinia rather than planning two separate drives. Wear shoes suitable for uneven ground, carry water, and judge swimming conditions on arrival. Follow accessible paths and leave the shoreline as you found it.

With thanks to Dr Dimitra Kamarinou, who restored this house and shared her knowledge of the region with us.

Make a stay of it
