Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Skopa beach (Peloponnese Region) 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 Skopa beach (Peloponnese Region) 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 Skopa 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.

This beach in the region is truly unique and captivating. It is a small island that is connected to the mainland by a narrow stretch of sand, forming two semi-circular bays. Each bay has its own picturesque view to the East or West. By walking across this strip, you will arrive at a delightful island adorned with olive groves and cypress trees. And there's even another island beyond that! It is secluded, nestled between tall forested cliffs, and features crystal-clear blue water flowing over pebbles of both black and white. It is a place that will leave a lasting impression and fill you with a sense of enchantment.

Parking is not available at the beach. There are only a couple of spots where you can park your car and then walk to the beach. The road leading to the beach is extremely narrow. We couldn't find any parking space anywhere close by!

The beach is just average compared to the other ones in the Mani area. I highly recommend not driving all the way down to the beach due to the lack of parking areas and limited space for maneuvering the car without causing damage. Inexperienced drivers may find it challenging to navigate the narrow road leading to this beach, as we had to reverse our way out. Additionally, make sure to bring your swimming shoes as there are numerous sea-urchins hidden among the pebbles on this beach.
