If you love waterfalls then polylimnio is a beautifull place to visit Its about a 3 hour drive from Athens or one could use the Kalamata airport to be a half an hour away.In order for someone to enjoy this place he should be in good health because you have to hike down for about 500 meters in order to reach the first lake but if you make it you will be amazed .The feeling of being in very beautiful natural environment is what you will encouter

“People say I make strange choices, but they’re not strange for me. My "sickness" is that I’m fascinated by human behavior, by what’s underneath the surface, by the worlds inside people...There are four questions of value in life: What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for, and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same. Only love....I think the thing to do is to enjoy the ride while you’re on it.” -Johnny Depp

This is a wonderful beach, with clean sand, nice waves when there's wind, a light undertoe and a variety of different swimming niches, some perfect for underwater viewing (lots of local fish varieties) and diving and some for just chilling. The taverna and bar, both of which are continually changing their names. provide good food, cappuccino freddo's and beer on tap just when you need them, plus there are some shady spots reaching all the way down to the shore.

Reviewed By LindaWNottm - Nottingham, United Kingdom
We hired bicycles at a very reasonable cost from Martin's on the main Street through Gialova (which is open 24hrs) then headed off along the beach road and across the lagoon toVoidakilia Beach (saw flamingoes and herons on the way) then parked up on the beach for a couple of hours on the beach. You need to bring everything with you -a parasol for shade and food and drink. The bay is beautiful fine sand sloping very gently down - you can be a fair way out before you are out if your depth. Water was clear, fishes swimming everywhere. We went early but by lunchtime it was busy and we cycled back. We loved it.

We were unfortunate to arrive to 4 days of rain and thunderstorms. Peroulia beach bar and restaurant was a great spot to lazily spend the day grazing and dipping into the sea when the sun came out. Food was very good, with choice of barbecued meats and fresh fish.

Being in Kalamata during summer vacation, we visited The Museum of Military History. The Museum is unique as young guides from the Arcaiological and History University nearby start to explane to us the history journay of Greeks ftom the age of 1821 Greek Revolution to nowadays. Museum's exhibits, the history trail, the guide help make our family visit unforgetable. Thanks again all the personnel for that moments we spend during our mornig visit there. Must go.
