Ocean Bar offers free umbrellas with a purchase from the restauraunt/bar. Great beach fir smimming and important turtle nesting ground with nests protected by local groups.
It’s a really nice beach for the area to say the least. Has a few cafe and resto bars along the beach that offer chair and umbrella rentals along with food and drinks as well. I definitely recommend a visit here if in this local area.
We've been to five beaches around this area, and this was our favorite so far. The water was very clean and clear, the tiny pebble beach was easy to walk on, and the slope was perfect into the water. Trees to park under for shade and a shower to rinse off. The loungers were clean, well kept, and comfortable but cost money to use. We felt it was worth the cost. We will be back!
Long, small pebbly, with all amenities necessary. Very good option if in the area
Great beach with lounge chairs and service. Nice clean water. Beach drops off into the deep very quickly so if you can't swim be careful as I saw no lifeguards.
Beautiful beach in the morning, in the afternoon there are a lot of waves, in the evening it is the same without waves and calm. There are a lot of rocks on the side, nice for diving, there are fish and shells.
One of the most beautiful sandy long beaches with crystal clear water of Peloponnese, is Mavrovouni beach near the town of Gytheion. Among other is a perfect place for 'wind riders' as many Wind surfers or Kite surfers are visiting this place for the strong winds !
Beautiful beach. "Sandy" beach (I.e. tiny pebbles! Not great with family (kids) as it gets deep quick, and when we arrived, waves were pretty big and did not feel comfortable! Apparently, turtles nesting on this beach, which would be cool to see (we did not). Assuming no info on rip currents means there are none despite large waves! Vist morning as wind picks up in afternoon!!

Dimitrios shipwreck is located in a beautiful, sandy beach. The sight of the stranded ship is amazing! The sea water is surprisingly clean, considering the fact that the ship is covered in rust. Enjoy swimming next to the old ship, but please be careful around it not to hurt yourself. It goes without saying that you should not climb it for safety reasons.
great place for cool pictures. nice beach shallow sandy beach, too. be caregull, there are turtle nests.
Amazing place! You are not going to see a wrecked ship everyday so this place is really unique. The ship was a contraband one caring stock for Italy from Turkey, but ended up here. The ship lacks views from the inside and everything is rusted so be careful!
Very cool ship wreck and graffiti on a nice sandy beach. Easy to access with a short walk along the sand. There were a lot of people but they and come and go so it wasn’t bad. I thought it was worth the side trip or stop if you’re in the area.
Beautiful wreck, certainly the most interesting of Greece. Nice beach as well. If you pass by, just don’t hesitate to have a look, it’s definitely worth it !!
Amazing massive ship cover in great graffiti stranded on the sandy beach with beautiful water to swim in and soaked in sunshine. If you are there go see this wreck
Great place for photos. You drive through tangerine orchards to the beach. Waves big enough for swimming. Remains of some fortress can be seen in the water and a turtle habitat. Beautiful
It’s cool that this wreck was left here, on a sandy beach and clear waters perfect for a swim. There’s a restaurant on the beach as well so a great visit for locals and tourists alike.

Very beautiful tower, unfortunately it is permanently closed and you can’t get inside or visit. The outside country is beautiful though and worth a visit.
The building is beautiful, situated on a peninsula in Gytheio. One can park the car nearby. The museum was closed when visited.
Another place.. another tower… very interesting building.. but as usual for the town of Githio closed.. when they will understand that these places must be open… maybe because they just want the tourist just to eat at the restaurants and drink coffee.. nothing else.. or maybe not… we will never get an answer for this
If Google information is correct it is open Saturday and Sunday 0800 - 1600. Looked interesting and well preserved from outside......Well no, I went back at 8.30am Sunday 14th July 2019 and it's all locked up!.I just met a local who was checking security and it's been closed 6 years.
Really nice place with a beautiful building. The view of Gythio is awesome.
Impressive castle but the museum was closed on Sunday morning.
It was closed on a Thursday morning, of course we could visit the building outside
We were unsure of what this place was and unfortunately it was closed as well.

Slide 1 of 8
One of the oldest shops around this city.. operate from early 1900, it was impressive to go inside and see, smell and taste most of their products. So we choose two of their local products and we taste them. All were tasty. Next time hope we will have more time to taste their other products.
If you're in the area of Gytheio in Peloponnese, I advise you to visit this shop for the exquisite taste and the purity of the ingredients used for their creations. My most favorite is the sesame bar with just honey.
Excellent food quality and very clean place. It is one of the oldest shops in Greece, being operating since 1902 and the reason why is not lost to me after I tasted its many goods!
Beautiful traditional pastry shop, that sells a very vast array of traditional homemade sweets and desserts : varieties of sesame and honey bars, small almond round cookies called amygdales, loukoums… but also a ton of local products such as jams, olives, sea salt, etc. This shop, that is more than a hundred years old, is a must-go address in Gythio if one craves a traditional dessert, or wants to buy loads of gifts to bring back home.
The best pasteli in the world!
Traditional home made "pasteli" with legacy. Try it!!!
Always professional
(Translated by Google) The shop takes you back to other times and many thanks to the owners for keeping it that way. A wide variety of products that all looked fresh. The milk pie and the pasteli we got were EXCELLENT!!! (Original) Το μαγαζί σε παραπέμπει σε άλλες εποχές και πολλά μπράβο στους ιδιοκτήτες τους που το έχουν κρατήσει έτσι. Μεγάλη ποικιλία προϊόντων που έδειχναν όλα ολόφρεσκα. Η γαλατόπιτα και το παστέλι που πήραμε ΕΞΑΙΡΕΤΙΚΑ!!!

Very nice bar with cocktails
We chose a weekday night to visit, and the place wasn't too crowded. The view was lovely, as it sat slightly uphill, granting us a glimpse of the sea. In addition, the ambiance of the place was truly delightful. The decor revolved around music, creating a charming atmosphere. Notably, there were stairs cleverly painted to resemble a piano and an array of wind musical instruments adorning the walls. It added a unique touch and further enhanced the overall experience. The prices for cocktails ranged from 8 to 10€, while mocktails were priced at 5€, which felt reasonable. The cocktail I had wasn't anything extraordinary, but it was still enjoyable. However, we were surprised when the total price charged differed from what was stated on the receipt, and we couldn't figure out why.
Best martini in Gythio! Bravo!!
I have passed a very beautiful funny night with all people who lives in town, very nice the barwoman!
Nice music bar, friendly prices and staff. Only drawback is that a car! Drove through in front of us to move further along the end of the road
Great location overlooking Gythion's boardwalk. Amazing artisanal cocktails. Friendly service.
Very friendly and good service, very decent drinks and bearable volume of music, could turn it down a notch...
Just go there and special in the evening when the moon kiss the see... Dont exist so a beautiful place... Good job guys!

Worth the trip for the theatre alone. Amazingly impressive to see up close. And in regular use. Not too crowded when we went. Children go free.
This is the ancient theatre of Githio. Abandoned , locked, green that it is almost more than a meter high. No one care about it. So you can’t see the theatre but you can imagine it. Yes it is near by a military camp but no one will say you something, if you don’t take photos of the military camp. Of course if you start the photos.. of course they will have a word with you. It is common sense in all countries that photography and military places are a no go.
Small but spectacular ruins, unfortunatelly surrounded by fence, no sign about opening hours. So sad
The ancient theater of Gytheio is a small preserved theater, located in the north edge of the modern settlement of Gytheio, on a slope of a hill, beside a military base. The theater was one of the most important archaeological sites in the area and it was built during the Roman period, at the 1st century A.D. The site was discovered and excavated by the Greek archeologist Dimitris Skias at 1891. The theater had simple stone seats in all rows except of the first row that contained backrests and was made of marble for the officials (the V.I.P.s). During the Roman period there were thymelic performances at the site (The thymelic was song contest, dedicated to god Dionysos), which included a parade and sacrifices to the Roman emperors. The fenced site that might look a bit abandoned today, hosts during the summer some cultural events, such as ancient drama performances, public speeches, and music concerts as part of the Festival of Gythio. However, the site still requires some serious renovation and restoration works as well as basic things like signs and historical explanation, in order to bring him back to his glory days.
The theatre looks in reasonable condition and is worth a view over the fence as the soldiers at the army base next door watch you closely. As with the other ancient ruins in Gytheio the gate is closed and you cannot get close to the ruins, which is a shame.
Very small, only to see from outside through a fence. There are much nicer ones. Only come here, if you pass otherwise not worth the way.
There is no way in. Unfortunately, nobody takes care of it. Looks very sad 😔
Interesting to see when visiting Gythio but not worth a visit alone. Seems a little neglected.

This Cafe Bar is a charming spot located right on the beach, just a 10-minute drive from Gytheio. Despite the slow service, the food is good, making it a pleasant place to dine. One of its highlights is the natural shade provided by the trees, creating a cool and relaxing atmosphere even on hot days. The prices are decent, adding to its appeal as a beachside retreat. Whether you're stopping by for a meal or just to enjoy a drink by the sea, Cafe Bar offers a cozy and enjoyable experience. Its proximity to Gytheio makes it a convenient choice for both locals and visitors looking to unwind by the water.
One of the most popular spots in Gytheio for many generations :-) The coffee shop/bar is on the famous Mavrovouni beach. You can use the sunbeds and take a coffee or beer while you rest after your swim, or you can rent a wind surf. During the high season there is also a guy who offers wind surfing classes.
A perfect place to visit for swimming, with all amenities for an enjoyable swim. Coffee, drinks and food are served in long chairs under shade, next to the water.
It's a wonderful family-owned and run establishment!! Beautiful beach front cafe and bar. You can sit and relax at the beach, enjoy windsurfing lessons or other sports, then enjoy a refreshing beverage!
There is lots of wind most of the time, so it becomes ideal if you want to kitesurf or windsurf. The beach and sea have sand, and there are a lot of umbrellas, and sunbeds to use, which are free and you only pay for what you order. There are fresh water showers, toilet, and changing rooms as well.
Descent place to spent some time by the beach,but the service and the quality are not great
Great all-day-at-the-beach place for swimming, coffee and food plus a windsurf club
Very nice place for vacations , come to swim and have a good time

A must to visit when you pass around gythion. Very tasty, healthy and some rare delicacies. Thank you for your products!
Nice shop with excellent products. However difficult to reach if you follow Google maps. Better is to look at sign around 300m from Camping Mani on the right side when coming from Mavrouni and Gytheo. The follow the signs! Note: please call in advance. They then will open the doors for you
We were interested to hear their bio concept, and well, besides a deplorable reception (we were certainly a nuisance) the only thing they seemed interested in was selling us products. Not worth the trip.
(Translated by Google) I would like to make an appointment. BUT: Without knowing any price first, it makes no sense. A great website without any price information is only 50% effective. They also give their address - why... you should make an appointment in advance. Or do you, biologically speaking, order in a restaurant without knowing the prices beforehand? No offense, but from my point of view it doesn't make sense. (Original) Ich würde ja gerne eine Termin vereinbaren. ABER: ohne vorher irgendeinen Preis zu wissen macht das keinen Sinn. Ein toller Internetauftritt ohne jegliche Preisangabe hat seinen Sinn nur zu 50% erreicht. Sie geben ja auch ihre Adresse an - warum ... man soll ja auch vorher einen Termin vereinbaren. Oder bestellen Sie, biologisch gesehen, auch in einem Restaurant ohne vorher die Preise zu kennen ? Nichts für ungut- aber aus meiner Sicht ist das nicht schlüssig.
(Translated by Google) I was in Crete in 2012 and visited the organic farm back then. The concept and the quality convinced me and since then I have only bought my olive oil from the Karababas organic farm. My new partner moved in with me 5 years ago and at first he said it was nonsense to import extra olive oil from Greece. The taste ultimately convinced him and now he doesn't want any other oil. I like the oil so much that sometimes I just eat it with a little salt and white bread. The parcels are delivered on schedule and smoothly. I can absolutely recommend the organic farm Karababas. (Original) Ich war 2012 auf Kreta und hatte damals den Biohof besichtigt. Das Konzept und die Qualität haben mich überzeugt und ich kaufe seitdem mein Olivenöl ausschließlich beim Biohof Karababas. Vor 5 Jahren ist mein neuer Lebenspartner bei mir eingezogen, und er meinte zunächst, es sei doch Quatsch, das Olivenöl extra aus Griechenland zu importieren. Der Geschmack hat ihn letztlich überzeuge und nun möchte er auch kein anderes Öl mehr. Ich mag das Öl so gerne, dass ich es manchmal nur mit etwas Salz und Weißbrot esse. Die Zustellung der Pakete erfolgt planmäßig und reibungslos. Ich kann den Biohof Karababas absolut empfehlen.
(Translated by Google) We visited the organic farm as part of our tour and had a very interesting conversation with the boss. Respect for setting something up like that, we also bought it and look forward to being in contact next time in the fall and being able to order. We were very enthusiastic about the Karababas organic farm. (Original) Wir haben im Rahmen unserer Rundreise den Biohof besucht und hatten ein sehr interessantes Gespräch mit der Chefin. Respekt, sowas aufzuziehen, haben auch eingekauft und freuen uns wenn wir dann im Herbst das nächste mal Kontakt haben und dann bestellen können. Weiter so waren sehr begeistert vom Biohof Karababas.
(Translated by Google) We were there without prior arrangement and were served in a friendly manner. After tasting, we were thrilled with the products and bought some. If you are in the area and value organic products, you should definitely drive by - after prior arrangement. Thanks for the friendly welcome! (Original) Wir waren ohne Absprache auf gut Glück da und wurden freundlich bedient. Wir waren nach der Verkostung von den Produkten begeistert und haben einiges gekauft. Wer in der Gegend ist und auf Bio Produkte wert legt sollte unbedingt - nach vorheriger Absprache - vorbeifahren. Danke für die freundliche Aufnahme!
(Translated by Google) A successful shopping experience with tasting of the products that completely convinced us. We actually had no problem arriving from Camping Gythion Bay on our bikes via Google Maps. However, it is advisable to announce the visit, as the operators also have to run their farm in addition to the shop. We did this by email and had an appointment made within a few hours. After the tasting, we loaded what we could into our dog trailer. We will probably use the ordering service, the products are really addictive ;-) (Original) Ein gelungenes Einkaufserlebnis mit Verkostung der Produkte, die uns voll und ganz überzeugt haben. Wir hatten tatsächlich kein Problem, via Google Maps mit den Rädern vom Camping Gythion Bay anzureisen. Es empfiehlt sich allerdings, den Besuch anzukündigen, da die Betreiber ja neben dem Shop noch ihren Hof betreiben müssen. Wir haben das per eMail getan und innerhalb weniger Stunden eine Terminvereinbarung stehen gehabt. Nach der Verkostung haben wir in unseren Hundeanhänger geladen, was ging. Wahrscheinlich werden wir den Bestellservice nutzen, die Produkte haben wirklich einen Suchtfaktor ;-)
