Summer means holidays and the sea for most. However, it does not mean that you have to go to an island to have a good time and enjoy the sea and the summer sun. Greece offers many more options for holidays by car. This way, you reduce your ferry expenses, and you can use them for your stay. In addition, if you choose a destination that does not need a ferry to reach it, you can more easily make excursions around and get to know more areas. We found some of the most dreamy destinations that you can visit only with your car! Greek destinations that leave no one unmoved…<\/p>\n

\"Fakistra<\/picture>
Pelion combines sea and mountain in the best way<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The destination that has it all and does not disappoint you, winter – summer. The reason, of course, is for Pelion. The trip to Pelion is the ultimate destination for mountain, sea, and good food<\/strong>. There you will find amazing beaches such as Mylopotamos, Papa Nero, and Agios Ioannis, and Fakistra<\/strong>, but also villages with coolness even on the hottest days of the year.<\/p>\n

\"Milopotamos<\/picture>

From the coolness offered by the plane trees, you can be on the beach within 20 minutes and enjoy the blue waters of the Aegean Sea. Of course, for Pelion, you do not need a ship, but it is good to be prepared for the turns you will find until you reach your destination. A very good choice of accommodation is Tsagarada, as it is a beautiful village with many accommodations and restaurants, you can find everything you want, and in 15 minutes you are by the sea!<\/p>\n

Holidays by car in Limeni<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\"Limeni<\/picture>
The picturesque Limeni of Laconia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Limeni of Laconia is one of the most dreamy sea destinations in Greece. You won’t need a ferry to get to Mani, but when you see this gem in front of you, it will leave you speechless. Limeni is a dreamy village with tower houses that almost touch the sea<\/strong><\/a>. It is located about 4 kilometers from Areopolis and about 27 kilometers from Gytheio.<\/p>\n

\"Limeni\"<\/picture>
Limeni offers, literally, holidays by the sea!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It is a unique experience for anyone who wants to enjoy the coast of Peloponnese in a place with special architecture. A strip of paradise on earth with stone houses on the water that leaves no one unmoved. However, because accommodation sells out quickly, it’s a good idea to search for your accommodation in time.<\/p>\n

Holidays by Car in Evia: An Ideal Destination
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n
\"Gialtra<\/picture>

The all-time classic choice for those who do not want to venture too far from Athens while loving the sea. Evia offers dozens of options in its northern, central and southern parts.<\/strong> You can choose among the dozens of settlements that offer stunning beaches, luxurious accommodation, hospitable rooms to let, and camping facilities.<\/p>\n

\"Evia<\/picture>
The beautiful Marmari of Evia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Cheromilos is one of the most beautiful beaches of Evia<\/strong>, isolated and 2.5 hours from Athens. Agios Dimitrios is definitely a special beach<\/strong><\/a> that offers the tranquility you may need. Golden Sand, in Marmari, is one of the most famous beaches<\/strong><\/a>! The proposals are indicative; the options are many. It is no coincidence that Evia is chosen by all types of travelers, and most return to get to know one more aspect of it. On its pluses, apart from its close distance from Athens, are the very good prices on all the amenities it offers.<\/p>\n
