Description
As we drove down a steep, winding, hairpin-bend but well-made road leading to Petani Beach, we encountered this view. This was a Greek Island in one picture, the bougainvillea and palms in the foreground with a sneak view of the glorious cobalt blue waters of the Mediterranean beyond.
Petani Beach (also spelled Petanoi) is situated in the North West of the Paliki, in Kefalonia, Greece. The nearest large town is Lixouri.
The beach is set at the base of a very steep road, surrounded by mountains, in a curved bay with a strip of pebble and sand beach which is up to 50M wide in places. The beach is about 600M long, with the central part being used by swimmers.
Petani beach is recognised for its great beauty, with many visitors comparing it with a smaller version of Myrtos Beach. It is a blue-flag beach. A favoured activity is evening swimming before watching changing colours on the sea as the sun sets in the West.
