Vithouri Beach Eubea

And here we are at a hidden diamond on the magnificent Evia, the Vithouri Beach. We find it in the east part about half of the island just behind Mount Dirfy, the highest peak that reaches 1743 meters above sea level, a favorite destination for climbers and trekking lovers in the middle of a wild and intact nature with views of the Gulf of Euboea and the Aegean Sea to leave you speechless. Along the coast there are the Glyfada and Agia Eirini villages.

The southern part of the mountain is rich in wild tea plants, expanses of chestnuts, plane trees and oaks, while the northern part is dry and arid. There are two rivers that cross it, the Metohiou and the Stroponon and it is also the source for the other two largest of Evia, the Massapios and the Lilas. Mount Dirfy is part of the Natura 2000 program due to its extraordinary biodiversity of plant and animal species.

But let’s come to our protagonist, Vithouri beach. A small bay facing the Aegean that few people know perhaps due to the fact that reaching it is not exactly that easy, and perhaps also for this reason we can consider it as a hidden paradise still uncontaminated and wild. A small shoreline of small pebbles, bathed by crystalline and transparent waters, with a bright turquoise sea mixed with blue, blue and emerald, definitely a bit cold if we have to say it all with a backdrop that drops quickly enough.

Protected by high cliffs dotted with Mediterranean scrub that dominate the Aegean, it is as if wedged in a beautiful natural gorge and is perfect for snorkelers who will be able to enjoy so much grace from Mother Nature with depths rich in fish fauna and flora. all to be discovered. Don’t forget mask and fins, please!

Given its conformation, Vithouri beach remains sunny for only six hours a day and precisely from noon to six in the afternoon so do your math well if you want to go and discover it. Also remember that being exposed to the north winds, when the wind blows it is quite difficult to stay there all day so check the weather conditions before embarking on the adventure.

It is also good to be aware of the fact that you are in the middle of nowhere and it is not a euphemism, it is the harsh reality, here a trace of human presence equal to zero as well as a fixed camper, so ‘if you decide to dedicate a whole day in this eden, remember to bring everything from something to shelter you from the sun, to something to eat and drink. The first traces of modernity about five kilometers away just to be informed.

You will have understood that the Vithouri beach is for true connoisseurs and daredevils, in fact it will be very easy to find few people and therefore enjoy the day in total tranquility. Instead, you could meet camping lovers practically “parked” with their tents for a holiday in Evia in total freedom and without any kind of constraint or modernity.

How to get to Vithouri Beach

Here comes the fun! First of all you need to have your own vehicle to reach the area, being remote it has no connections with public services. So head towards Psachna up to the village of Paliou and then get to Agios Athansios where there are signs for Glyfada all through a salt and descend from the mountain that the journey alone is worth the effort.

Just after Glyfada begins a dirt road for about five kilometers. We already tell you that above all the last two are terrible, practically you have to go at walking pace with the car for the continuous holes but only the view will repay you for everything.

What more can we say about Vithouri beach? That you have to put it among the things to see in Evia, and try to go there just so you will be able to understand how beautiful it is.
