Overview

A trip to Piraeus is not complete without a visit to at least one of its several beaches. These excellent beaches are scattered throughout the city of Piraeus and all offer good facilities. Located on the southern coast of the peninsula of Piraeus, between Tourkolimano and Pashalimani is the Votsalakia Beach, or the 'Little Pebbles' Beach. Said to be one of the very best beaches in Piraeus, Votsalakia Beach offers a variety of things to do and see. The fine, sandy beach is not only great for those looking to relax and unwind and enjoy the view; it also makes a fantastic destination for visitors looking for some activity, as the sparkling water is generally calm and great for swimming. There are also tennis courts found here, as well as one for volleyball, a swimming pool and more.
