NEA (NEW) EPIDAVROS beach in EPIDAVROS in ARGOLIDA PELOPONESE

It has a quite nice, peebley and very long beach with some traditional tavernas, cafes and a few umbrellas and sunbeds. It has a very nice small marina with power supply. One of the tavernas that we tasted (named MARILENA) had good traditional food and fresh fish and has its tables on the beaches' peebles. It is the one closer to the marina.

New Epidavros village is located 8 km off Ancient Epidavros. Its population, numbering 1500 permanent residents, triples in summer. The landscape here is varied, as the village is laid out on rocky slopes, amid the ruins of a Venetian castle. At the foot of the slope a gorge of unique beauty is formed, known as the Gorge of Vothila, one of the most beautiful ravines in Greece. In the opposite direction, another slope is covered by a wonderful pinewood, its pine tress running down from Mt Akros. It was at this place that the first National Assembly was held in December 1821, shortly after the Greeks had liberated themselves from the Ottoman rule.

In the course of this assembly, blue and white were officially chosen as the colors of the Hellenic flag, while the Constitution of Epidavros, one of the most progressive constitutions at the time, was drafted. The village spreads out towards the sea and ends in two naturally formed bays, one of which serves as a harbor to the area.
