Itinerary

  1. After a scenic half-hour drive through the beautiful Greek countryside, we arrive at Kourouta Beach — one of the largest, sandiest, and most stunning beaches in the region. Entrance to the beach is free. You can choose to wander freely, find your own private spot along the endless golden sands, and enjoy a peaceful swim. Or, if you prefer, you can settle at one of the many organized beach sections offering refreshments, local treats, and sunbeds. We spend approximately two and a half hours at the beach — plenty of time to relax, swim, and soak up the sun. Afterwards, we meet at the designated meeting point and return comfortably to the cruise ship.

  • 5Sandy Beach

    This was a super fun experience. The beach is beautiful and sandy, with a lovely shoreside restaurant. My only complaint is that the time on the event said 12:00 but it actually started at 1:00.

About Katakolo

Katakolo is a small port on the west coast of the Peloponnese and the nearest harbour to ancient Olympia, where the Olympic Games began.

Katakolo sits at the tip of a small cape in the region of Elis, facing the Ionian Sea, with the island of Zakynthos visible on a clear day across the water. The port is a small waterfront of tavernas and cafés along a quay. Pyrgos, the regional town, lies a short way inland, and the coast on either side has long sandy beaches.
