Diakopto offers a unique coastal holiday on the shores of the Corinthian Gulf. Unlike typical resorts with sandy shores, this is a charming town where dramatic mountain scenery meets the sea. The beaches are predominantly pebbly, a feature that contributes to the exceptional clarity and calmness of the water. This setting is ideal for a relaxed getaway that perfectly blends seaside leisure with nature, moving at a slower, more tranquil pace.
Among the area's most celebrated spots is the famous Paralia Pounta, widely praised for its beautiful, clear waters. For a classic Greek experience complete with seaside tavernas, Paralia Nikoleikon is an excellent choice. The convenient Diakopto Beach is located right in town, offering easy access and proximity to the famous Odontotos railway. Just a short distance away, the well-regarded Eleonas Beach is another local favorite.
While these are some of the highlights, the coastline is home to many more coves and shores, which you can explore in our full list of beaches. The true appeal of Diakopto lies in its dual character, offering both peaceful days by the water and unforgettable adventures like the historic train journey through the Vouraikos Gorge. It’s a destination that provides a memorable Greek holiday that goes beyond just the beach.
