Agios Thomas Beach — Attraction in Peloponnese, Western Greece and the Ionian

This beach is quietly tucked away near Karavados in the region of Livatho Kefalonia

It is a small sandy beach which you must get to early in the morning otherwise parking and finding a spot to lay will be an issue

There are large stone boulders you can also lay your towel on and dive into the water from

The two taverns are a total ripoff located by the beach are a total ripoff, they charge €4 for a take away...

A beautiful place, one of my favourites. On this beach, there’s a small spot run by a man named Denis (no website yet as I see), who offers shade with umbrellas and sun loungers. The area is covered with natural grass, which keeps the heat at bay and makes it especially pleasant.

Denis also provides paddleboards and snorkeling gear, and this is just the beginning — he’s still building and developing the place. Everything is offered at very reasonable prices, so I highly recommend stopping by.

He’s also a genuinely...
