About Mavrovouni

The tiny village of Mavrovouni cascades down a hillside to the sparkling Ionian Sea. Relax on golden sand beaches and enjoy mouth-watering seafood. A backdrop of olive groves, citrus orchards and vineyards add to the picturesque setting. You’re a stone’s throw from the lively town of Gythio and an easy day trip from ancient archaeological sites dotted across Laconia.

Things to do in Mavrovouni

Rent a sun lounger and top up your tan on Mavrovouni Beach. It stretches for five kilometres and is fringed by gold sand and crystalline water. If you’re lucky, you might spot loggerhead turtles nesting on the beach. Enjoy lunch at a local taverna or order ice-cold drinks and ocean-fresh octopus, calamari and grilled cuttlefish straight to your sun lounger.

A narrow causeway connects the mainland with Marathonisi, an offshore islet studded with pine trees. It’s steeped in Greek mythology and was a former stomping ground for Paris and Helen, whose elopement led to the Trojan War. The whitewashed lighthouse perched on the eastern tip of the islet is an excellent photo op.
