Kolymbia Beach
Kolymbia Beach Vacation & Travel Guide
The Kolymbithres beach is located on the northwest coast of the Peloponnese, in the area of Messinia. The length of the beach is approximately two kilometers. The beach is sandy, shallow, and narrow.
Paros Island is located in the Aegean Sea and is part of the Cyclades Islands. The famous Parian marble is mined in the mountains of the island, from which great buildings were built and many antiquity monuments were carved. For example, it was used for the sculpture of Aphrodite (Venus) of Milo, the temples of Apollo on Tilos, Hermes at Olympia, for some parts of the Temple of Solomon. Mountains make up a small part of the landscape, but the island is mostly flat, with palm and olive groves, endless vineyards, and kilometers of beautiful beaches with the purest golden sand. Recently, the romantic island of Paros has been wildly popular with tourists.
