Tolo Beach Tolo Beach stretches for about a kilometer, starting from the organized “Psili Ammos” beach and ending at the small picturesque harbor of the village, where you will always see fishing boats and various excursion vessels docked. The location of the beach and its facilities combine the ideal conditions for swimming, relaxing on the sand, and enjoying a coffee, drink, or meal right by the waves, as there are traditional tavernas, cafes, and bars along the coast. You can also find various accommodations offering breathtaking views of the Argolic Gulf, with balconies just a breath away from the sea. The sea is shallow, mostly sandy, with a few pebbly spots, making it ideal for children, with warm and clear waters.
