Finibikes

Finibikes is our bicycle shop and you are always welcome! You can buy, rent and repair your bike in a friendly and knowledgeable way. The perfect way to explore the unspoilt nature in Finikounda and the rest of Peloponnese! We can easily visit the nearby beaches and historical places with a regural holland type or an e-bike. Trekking and mountain bikes are also available. Furthermore included, we provide helmets, locks, lights and bicycles with a child seat.

After some 4,000 miles (6,400 km) of hard use, our British e-bikes were ready for some repairs and a major service. Fortunately we found Finibikes, right where we were staying in the small fishing port of Finikounda in the far southwest of the Peloponnese. Owners Nikos and Julie are ardent, committed and expert in all aspects of cycling, as well as operating as a tourist office for cyclists and, if required, guides. They sell, build, hire, service and repair every kind of bicycle for every kind of cyclist. Nikos is a highly skilled and knowledgeable mechanic, equipped to handle any problem from a puncture to servicing our hydraulic disk brakes, computer-controlled electric motor and electronically-shifted hub gears. A wheel that wobbled after earlier emergency replacement of a broken spoke, disk brake pads almost worn down to the metal, misaligned hub gears and air-filled hydraulic brake fluid were soon corrected. Equally impressive, with his laptop Nikos updated firmware and performed error checks on our bicycles’ Shimano computers

Palace of Nestor

Reviewed By surya77 - Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany

The viewing platform, which is brilliantly designed to 'hang over' the excavated area, makes it so much easier and more comfortable (no sun on one's head) for visitors to walk around and study the ruins of the Palace from above. There are signs with explanations about each different room. From the higher vantage point, one can also appreciate Nestor's brilliant choice of location for his Palace. He had a view all the way towards the sea and the various bays. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit

Romanos Beach

Reviewed By 343henryt - Hampstead Norreys, United Kingdom

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.

Voidokilia Beach

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.

Reviewed By aleksandarm129 - Sofia, Bulgaria

Methoni Castle is very big with interesting history. The archeologists have a lot of work to do. The views from the walls and towers are amazing. If you visit in summer - bring water.

A must when you visit Pylos. Breathtaking views, an archaeological museum, two buildings with exhibits belonging to the museum of underwater archaeology, a mosque as well as the castle itself with its fortified walls.
