Hersonissos Beaches

Home to three big beautiful beaches, and many more smaller ones spread throughout town, Hersonissos is the perfect destination for those looking to soak in some rays while either laying on a soft, sandy beach, or while frolicking through the clear, crisp surf! While there are many secluded coves you can discover for more private days in the sun (romantic or otherwise), the three main beaches are where the action is at when it comes to beach day activities. Located at these beaches are sun loungers for rent, beach-side bars and restaurants for a nice cooling refreshment or snack, as well as many, many water sports opportunities. Some of these activities include: Zipping around the warm water on a jet ski, renting banana boats for a more leisurely trip around the water, or even snorkelling and windsurfing for the more adventurous travellers.
