About Sandhill

Sandhill is a sandy beach on Achaia, facing west. Land shelters it from winds from the north-east, the east, and the south-east, so those winds leave the water flat here. Winds from the south-west, the west, and the north-west arrive over open sea and raise waves when they are strong. It looks west over open sea, so the sun sets into the water. A road leads to the beach and there is parking nearby. Within 300 m there are 2 tavernas and restaurants, 5 bars and cafés, and toilets or showers. A beach resort is on or next to the beach. The sea is warmest in August, at about 26 °C. It is above 22 °C from June to October.

Written from map data (OpenStreetMap contributors), our own measurement of the open sea around the beach and NOAA sea temperatures (1991-2020 averages).
