Is Iliodoros a sandy beach?

No, Iliodoros is a pebble beach, so water shoes are handy. Facilities: unspoiled nature and snorkelling.

Is it easy to park at Iliodoros?

There's no road to the beach, so there's no parking there: you arrive by boat. Park near the harbour or beach your boat leaves from.

When is Iliodoros least crowded?

It's rarely crowded, even in August. Outside June–September it's quiet all day.

Which wind is best for swimming at Iliodoros?

The beach faces west, so it's calmest when the wind blows from the east and gets waves when it blows from the west. The summer maistros, a northwesterly that picks up in the afternoon, often makes it choppy, so mornings are best.

Iliodoros beach guide

Iliodoros is a pebble beach beside the headland of the same name, southwest of Liapades on the west coast. It's one of a string of unorganised coves south of Liapades beach.

It can only be reached by sea: hire a small boat or take a water taxi from Liapades or Paleokastritsa. There are no facilities, so bring water and shade.
