Good to know
Which beaches in Viotia are more sheltered from the wind?
5 of the 8 face away from the maistros, meaning less open water in front of them for a wave to build across when it blows. It is not a guarantee — the same beach changes character when the wind turns. Check the live reading before you drive out.
How is this list ordered?
By how well known each beach is, not by a score of ours. Which beach is good on a given day changes hour by hour and cannot be printed on a static page — so this page carries the list and the things that do not change, and the live map carries the conditions.
How warm is the water, month by month?
Off 8 of the beaches on this page the sea is typically 18.5 °C in May, 22.7 °C in June, 25.4 °C in July, 25.9 °C in August and 24.7 °C in September — ideal at the height of summer, mild in June. By October it is 22.2 °C. August is the warmest month. Satellite measurements, 1995–2024, from a sea cell about 5 km offshore; shallow bays usually run warmer than this.
