Valtos Beach (Parga)

Valtos Beach, Parga

Location

Parga


Beach Name

Valtos


My Rating Overall

4=very good beach, would go out our way to swim there again


Beach

SP= small pebbles


Sea Floor

SP= small pebbles


Water

4=sea water was excellent and inviting for swimming. We would go out of our way to swim there again

(just my own unscientific observation of the water feel and appearance)
My family and I enjoy the water when it is crystal clear, and cool instead of warm. We don' like to see any visible floating particles of any kind or algae settled on the beach.


Clothing

Topless sunbathing is common


Access

Good=paved road all the way to the beach, parking near the beach

Parking can be a real pain. Be prepared to park far and to walk to the beach.


Amenities

R=restaurant (on the beach)
B=
bar (on the beach)
T=
town within walking distance
O=
organized beach (some areas have a lifeguard on duty part of the day)
OP=
organized, entrance fee
H=hotel on the beach

 


RV / Camper Accessibility

N= Campers explicitly forbidden


Snorkeling

P=looks promising but I did not dive

Rocky shore at the south end


Notes


Too many motor boats close to the bathers. They sail as if they would run bathers over if they don't get out of the way.

Comments The area is beautiful and very green and fertile. Only go if you are able to walk up and down hills that sometimes are a little slippery. However, overall very picturesque and the sea gorgeous. Fish will swim around your ankles. They are small, grey and blend with the pebbles so look carefully!
