About Paralia Ritsa 2i
Paralia Ritsa 2i is a pebble beach on Messenia, facing south-west. Land shelters it from winds from the north, the north-east, the east, and the north-west, so those winds leave the water flat here. Winds from the south and the south-west arrive over open sea and raise waves when they are strong. A road leads to the beach and there is parking nearby. Within 300 m there are 2 tavernas and restaurants and 1 bar or café. The sea is warmest in August, at about 26 °C. It is above 22 °C from July 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).
