Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Elia beach (Western Greece) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Elia beach (Western Greece) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Elia beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

The beach is quite pleasant, however, it loses its charm when the wind starts blowing.

This beach is an absolute gem for those who want to indulge in swimming and snorkeling. The underwater world is teeming with a plethora of fish in vibrant hues, making it a paradise for nature lovers. However, it's worth noting that the beach is rocky, so it's best to wear comfortable swimming shoes. While there isn't much shade available, you can still find some respite from the sun before 2 pm. Overall, this beach is a must-visit for anyone looking to explore the wonders of the ocean.

This beach is a hidden gem, tucked away from the crowds and accessible only via stairs. Although there is no shelter, except for the shade provided by the olive tree halfway down the steps, the pristine waters make up for it. However, there are no amenities such as restrooms or showers, so be prepared. The beach is rocky, so it is recommended to bring reef shoes for a comfortable experience.
