Agia Pelagia Beach is a beautiful, charming, narrow shore located in the village of Agia Pelagia. It is a small, quiet beach, especially preferred by families for its shallowness, and is a perfect spot to snorkel. Keep in mind that the beach is too narrow and there is not enough space to lay your own towel, in case you decide not to rent available sunbeds.
Several beach clubs on the beachfront offer plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas, where you can relax. On the northern side of the beach lies the Cavity of Evresi, where a shrine marks the spot where the icon of Saint Pelagia was discovered. There are several smaller coves nearby, such as Filakes Beach and Mononaftis Beach, each offering a unique beach experience. The beach is ideal for scuba diving, with several local diving centers offering classes and guided tours.
Other Important Objective Information : The beach is relatively narrow, so it can get crowded, especially during the high season. A pair of sunbeds and an umbrella is available at EUR 10. Visitors should be mindful of the rocks and sea urchins when exploring the secluded parts of the beach.
