Plaka – Endless Sand & Easy Days

Plaka’s long stretch of soft sand makes it perfect for families who want space to spread out. Many beach bars here are relaxed and low-key, offering comfort without noise. The sea is clean and often gentle, and kids have plenty of room to play without feeling crowded.

🧭 Before You Go

🧴 Sunblock & shade: Even with umbrellas, extra protection is key.

🧃 Juice over soda: Most beach bars offer freshly squeezed options.

🏐 Pack beach toys: Buckets, floaties, and a ball go a long way.

🍽️ Lunch early: Most kids fade by 2pm — get food in before that.

🏄 Skip windy days: Head to sheltered beaches like Agios Georgios.
