Top Family Friendly Beaches in Spetses

    The pine-clad island of Spetses has long been a favorite destination for Athenians and cosmopolitan travelers wishing to escape and relax on its laid-back beaches. There are several for you to choose from, each offering a unique way for you to spend the day with your family.

    Agia Marina Beach

    Only a couple of kilometers away from the port of Dapia, Agia Marina is a very popular organized beach consisting of sand and pebbles. Set amongst a backdrop of pine trees, this is a natural beauty with impressive views across to the privately-owned island of Spetsopoula. You will find plenty of fun watersports for all the family to try and when the kids are hungry, a beach bar and tavern serve authentic Greek dishes and tasty snacks.

    Xilokeriza Beach

    Only 6 km from Spetses town to the south of the island, this breathtaking beach promises total calm and relaxation. The shingle beach is one of the most tranquil in Spetses as the kaikis do not stop there, although it does have some amenities such as sunbeds and umbrellas. There is also a small snack bar, where you can sit and enjoy a cold drink and succulent souvlaki as you admire the emerald waters.

    Zogeria Beach

    This is a small sandy beach made up of two bays on the northwest side of the island. Accessible via a dirt track just off the main coastal road, you can also get there by boat from Dapia. It is definitely worth a visit as it has crystalline waters, is home to many sea urchins and fringed by shady pines. The beach was used as a key location in the filming of the recent movie, ‘The Lost Daughter’. A perfect relaxation spot, it has some sunbeds and umbrellas, as well as a small tavern that caters to hungry bathers. We recommend you book your table on arrival as it can get quite busy by lunchtime.

    Agioi Anargyroi is one of the island’s largest beaches and can be found on the southern side of the island. You can get there by kaiki from Dapia, take a water-taxi, or go on land with a moped or bicycle. The sand and pebble beach offers water sports facilities and you can even rent a motor boat to discover the nearby coves and inlets. The kids will love exploring Berkiri’s Cave on the west end of the beach although they should be supervised by an adult as the entrance can be slippery. After exploring, you can enjoy a traditional Greek meal at the beach’s tavern on the waterfront.
