Archea Pydna Beach

Archea Pydna Beach, located in Μακρύγιαλος, ΠΙΕΡΙΑ, ΕΛΛΑΔΑ, is a well-known coastal destination in North Pieria. Positioned approximately 22 kilometers southwest of the regional capital, ΚΑΤΕΡΙΝΗ, it is a popular choice for visitors due to its close proximity to the ancient city of Pydna. The beach offers a unique blend of natural beauty and historical significance, as it is also an archaeological site with Neolithic findings. The natural characteristics of Archea Pydna Beach include its warm and clean water, a sandy shoreline, and an elevation of 40 meters. However, visitors should note that the water does not have the same clarity as that of the Ionian islands or Chalkidiki. Moreover, despite being a popular destination, the beach is not typically crowded, making it an ideal spot for families with children. It is important for visitors to exercise caution while swimming due to the presence of sharp rocks in the sea and the common occurrence of seaweed. The beach provides several amenities for the convenience of its visitors, including showers and changing rooms. A café is also available on the left side of the beach under a row of trees, offering a relaxing environment for visitors. In addition, a beachfront hotel is available nearby, providing accommodation with a beautiful view of the beach from private balconies. The hotel features a bar where guests can enjoy a variety of beverages, and it also organizes beach parties for entertainment in the evenings. For dining options, visitors can find seafood taverns at Makrygialos. The beach is easily accessible and situated within a reasonable distance from the regional capital, making it a prime location for both local residents and tourists.
