About Gargarou Beach

Gargarou Beach is a beach on Messenia, facing east. Land shelters it from winds from the south, the south-west, the west, and the north-west, so those winds leave the water flat here. Winds from the north-east and the east arrive over open sea and raise waves when they are strong. A road leads to the beach. Nothing to eat or drink is mapped within 300 m, so bring water and shade. 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).

When is it busy?
