Beaches in Greece

With beautiful smooth sand and crystal-clear waters spreading straight over several of the islands' coastlines, it is not an exaggeration to say that Greece has the largest number of beaches in the world. The shallow, quiet waves make them the ideal location for swimming, diving, and snorkeling, but if you don't feel like swimming in the sea, each of our Greek villas in this collection has a private pool where you can cool down.

Naming all the beaches in Greece would take ages, that is why we have included some of the best Greek beaches in this list which we would recommend you to visit during your holiday.
