Paramonas beach guide

Paramonas is a quiet beach on the southwest coast, about 3 km by road below the village of Agios Mattheos. The shore is sand mixed with small pebbles, and the sea is relatively shallow.

There are tavernas by the beach serving fresh fish. Public transport is limited, so a car or scooter is the easiest way to get there.

About Paramonas

Is Paramonas a sandy beach?
Paramonas has a mix of sand and pebbles. Facilities: taverna and unspoiled nature.
Is it easy to park at Paramonas?
Free parking. There's usually space, even in high season. You can drive right up to the beach.
When is Paramonas least crowded?
It's rarely crowded, even in August. Outside June–September it's quiet all day.
Which wind is best for swimming at Paramonas?
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.
