The city beach, beside the port

An urban beach ~1 km from Piraeus port, just past Mikrolimano, below Kastella. The name means "little pebbles" — ~600 m of sand and pebbles (rockier on one side).

Partly organized (a beach bar’s sunbeds, changing cabins, WCs, a beach-volley court), the rest free, with many cafés/restaurants nearby — the most convenient swim right in the city.
