The sandy beach inside the city

Kourenti lies within the city of Chalkida in Evia, an urban beach of fine sand facing the North Evian Gulf. It is one of the most familiar swimming spots for the people of Chalkida, reached directly from the city's neighbourhoods.

Chalkida, a city with a history reaching back to antiquity, is built on the Euripus strait, famous for its tidal phenomenon of waters reversing direction and for the bridges linking Evia to the mainland. Within this setting, Kourenti serves as the city's everyday beach, and local guides note that the sand continues into the water.

It is organized, with a beach bar, cafes, tavernas and restaurants a short distance away; the water is shallow, and access is direct from a paved road, with parking nearby.
