On the eastern side of Pelion, below Zagora, lies the vast sandy beach of Horefto. With sand and organized facilities, the beach offers ample space even on August 15th. The gentle waves and natural protection of the bay create calm waters. Ideal for families and groups seeking comfortable holidays without surprises.
The beach faces east. With westerly winds the air flows offshore and the water near the shore stays flat; with easterly winds the sea builds up waves onto the beach. The coast is exposed to the open sea, so conditions change quickly with the wind.
In calm seas yes, but the water gets deep fairly quickly — normal supervision applies.
On days with westerly (offshore) winds or no wind at all. Check the live score on Beach Radar before you go — it updates all day.
Yes — sunbeds, umbrellas and food options operate during the summer season.
