Petalidi

Petalidi Beach

Nestled at the embrace of the homonymous village, right next to its harbor, the small Petalidi beach spreads in approximately 300 meters length, with its colorful pebbles being connected with a sandy sea bottom, as you enter its deep blue waters.

It has plenty of natural shade from the trees surrounding it, while an abundance of cafés and taverns guarantee you that you won’t miss anything.

Petalidi is built upon the ruins of Ancient Aipeia, one of the seven cities that Agamemnon promised as a dowry to Iphigeneia.

Aipeia was destroyed by the Spartans during the third Messinian War, as an ally of Messini, and its residents run to Sicily, leaving behind the magical landscape that we can find here today.
