Summer in Parga is inextricably linked to its magnificent beaches. Their beauty is not limited to turquoise waters or golden sand – these are beaches with personality, history and a unique atmosphere. Each beach in Parga is a unique experience and offers something different: tranquility, adventure, romance or family relaxation.

If you are visiting Parga in the summer, there is no doubt that you will spend a large part of your time by the sea. In this article you will discover the most beautiful and popular beaches in the area, as well as some “hidden gems” for those looking for quieter corners of paradise.

Valtos: The landmark beach of Parga

Valtos Beach is located right behind the castle of Parga and is one of the largest and most organized in the area. With a length of almost one and a half kilometers, it offers plenty of space for everyone – families, couples, groups.

The waters are crystal clear and shallow, while the beach has sun loungers, beach bars, taverns, showers and water sports options. If you feel like walking, you can reach it from the port of Parga in 15–20 minutes via the castle, enjoying the magnificent view.

Lichnos: The beach of tranquility and natural beauty

Just 3 kilometers south of Parga, Lichnos beach is a favorite destination for those seeking a quieter and more natural environment. The beach combines pebbles and sand, has deep and clear waters, and is surrounded by lush green rocks that create small natural bays.

Ideal for couples and alternative travelers, the beach offers opportunities for water sports, canoe and boat rides, as well as fresh fish at the taverns in the area.

Kryoneri: The heart of the city

Right in front of the center of Parga, Kryoneri beach is small but lively. It offers direct access from most of the town's accommodations, clear waters and beautiful views of the islet of Panagia.

Ideal for a quick dip, for families with children or for those who want to enjoy the sun without leaving their hotel. In the evening, the area around the beach turns into a meeting point for locals and tourists.

Piso Kryoneri: Small and quiet

A little further from Kryoneri, through a short path, you will find the smallest beach in the area: Piso Kryoneri. It is a calm bay, ideal for those who want to avoid the crowds.

Without many organized facilities, but with unique serenity and shade from the rocks, it is a hidden haven for romantics and lovers of natural beauty.

Sarakiniko: The exotic side of Parga

Sarakiniko Beach is one of the most beautiful places to visit near Parga. It is located west of the city, accessible either by car or boat, and stands out for its sandy beach, clear waters and quiet environment.

You can enjoy the sun, go diving or just relax listening to the sound of the waves. The beach also has a few taverns, where you can try local dishes with a view of the sea.

Agiosostis & Spanos: Small, hidden paradises

For the more adventurous, the beaches of Agiosostis and Spanos, accessible mainly by boat, are small paradises without organized infrastructure. Ideal for exploration, for those who want peace and complete isolation from the tourist noise.

Take water, sunscreen and a good mood with you – the images you will experience will more than compensate you.

Marine activities and exploration

The beaches of Parga are not just for relaxing. You can try:

  • Diving and snorkeling in places with sea caves and rich underwater life.
  • Sea kayaking and paddle boarding to explore the bays.
  • Boat rental to visit secluded beaches on your own.

If you choose to take part in any of these activities, you will see Parga from a completely different perspective.

When is the best time to enjoy the beaches?

The months of June through September are ideal. July and August are livelier and more intense, but if you prefer more tranquility and milder temperatures, then early June and mid-September offer the ultimate “private summer.”
