Glossa Beach, Greece

From series “The Hidden and Hard-To-Reach Beautiful Beaches”
In the south-west of Peloponnese, in Messenia is the beautiful beach of Glossa Beach, protected from the wind and the strange glances of the high cliffs covered with lush brushwoods. The stretch of coast accessible to the rest has the regular triangular shape and is covered with the soft snowy sand. To the beach you can go to the sea. The high rocky wall surrounding the beach completely excludes access to the coast from the mainland.

In the immediate vicinity of the coast are the coral colonies. Glossa Beach is like found for snorkeling. This magical area will also appeal to the experienced divers who can enjoy the beauty of the underwater world all by themselves. The beach is very quiet and shallow. Even those tourists who can not swim or have a holiday with the children will be able to relax here. The wind and strong waves are very rare phenomena for this unified, calm coast. For several years, Glossa Beach has been one of the most picturesque and purest beaches in Greece. Next - Honopu Beach
