Mylopotamos Beach

Reviewed By MariaS0raya

On the side of the Aegean Sea Mylopotamos Beach stands out as the most famous beach of eastern Pelion. A distinctive rock sits at the center of the beach and divides it into two sections. White sand, small pebbles, natural shade, blue-green waters... an excellent place to forget about the rest of the world... Crowded during summertime...

Pelion Railway

Reviewed By georgee410

This magnificent ride is a must-see! I've been to Pilio 3 times so far and every time I am going to that wonderful ride with this 100-year-old train. It passes from some wonderful places and the view from the small "balconies" is really breathtaking! I don't know about Summer, but on Winter it works only during weekends. Don't forget to book your tickets, cause there are limited seats available.

Tzasteni

On the road from Milina to Trikeri will see the picturesque bay of Tzasteni with gorgeous little beach

Reviewed By motya2015 - Tel Aviv, Israel

What a wonderful place! Probably one of the nicest beaches in Western Pelion. A picturesque beach with clear and peaceful water - perfect for adults and kids as well. It has no facilities, but there are few olive trees around to offer shade. No bar or restaurant, which is also the advantage of the place which makes it more quite and tranquil. Definitely wort the trip south.

Fakistra Beach

Peninsular paradise or beach with a wow effect That's the one - beautiful beach from the picture however, at the same time, nobody knows where it is. As for you, you never heard anything about Fakistra and that's okay. It's time to discover.

Reviewed By T6929XCjessicas

Absolutely beautiful beach. It’s a bit of steep downhill walk to get to but it’s totally worth it!! The beach is stunning and the water is crystal clear. The beach was almost empty when we went, which we loved because it was totally peaceful.
