The beach of Gouves is very well organized with umbrellas, sunbeds, water sports, showers and changing rooms. The sea has fine sand and shallow water but is open to the frequent north winds, that’s why it is wavy.

The road of Gouves runs along the coast, which is full of beach bars, coffee shops and restaurants. In the evening you can walk along this road and enjoy the sunset. A place worth visiting is the church of St. Constantine, which is built within a small pine forest, just next to the sea.
