Legrena Beach is a scenic beach located a considerable distance from Athens. The beach is known for its soft sand and expansive space, providing ample room for visitors. However, the sea is mostly rocky, making it a popular spot for rock fishing. Despite its rocky nature, the beach may not be suitable for children.
One of the unique characteristics of Legrena Beach is its natural protection status. This status has resulted in the beach having no infrastructure, making it ideal for short visits. The beach is also known for its seclusion, providing a peaceful and quiet environment for visitors. Even in late October, the beach maintains its charm and appeal.
Visitor reviews highlight the natural beauty and seclusion of the beach, with its soft sand and ample space being particularly appreciated. Many also enjoy the unique rocky features, which provide opportunities for activities like rock fishing. However, some visitors express concerns about the lack of infrastructure and suitability for children due to the rocky terrain.
Visitors to Legrena Beach typically stay in nearby towns like Sounio or Lavrio, as there are limited accommodations directly on the beach due to its protected status. Many travelers come to the area to explore the historic Temple of Poseidon in Sounio and include a visit to the beach as part of their itinerary.
