The “journey” in Agia continues by following the steps suggested by the Municipality, so that visitors can discover the nature, cuisine, activities, beaches, and mountains of the area.

The Municipality of Agia is launching a series of suggestions for the summer of 2025. With its 45km coastline, endless destinations, the beautiful landscapes of Kissavos and Mavrovouni, as well as its immense cultural heritage, the Municipality of Agia offers 45 “steps” for visitors this summer—one for each day from July 1st to August 15th.

Each destination, every kilometer for each day, transforms into a “travel guide” for those visitors who wish to discover or recall the wonders of the Municipality of Agia.

Every day, a new destination or activity fills the summer for visitors to the region with unique experiences and suggestions for relaxation, flavors, and recreation.

Kastria Beach

Steo#15 Kastria Beach   

A short distance past Vrachakia, on the road towards Paliouria and just 300m from the cape, a quiet, small beach unfolds before us. It is ideal for families, as well as for those who have left their favorite book unfinished.

The waters are blue, with pebbles on the shore and little rocks in the sea—perfect for play.

 Step#16 Paliouria Beach

A fairly large beach stretching for about 2km. Sandy, with a touch of pebbles. A section of the beach is shaded by plane trees, providing natural shade at all hours. The unique combination of green and blue makes it the perfect choice for peaceful, family-friendly holidays.

A natural oasis, with plane trees right next to the beach, completes this beautiful puzzle.

Step #17 Paliouria Lake

A hidden lake with a trail that starts from the beach of Paliouria. The total walking distance is 6km.

The “Lake of Paliouria” is a natural pond in the area, just 2km from the beach of the small settlement of Paliouria, and was “discovered” after some of the trails were opened.

Essentially, it is an oasis of beauty, ideal for walking and alternative getaways, where visitors can admire the lush landscape, crystal-clear water, and even the small waterfalls found there.

Step#18 Monopetro- Koutsoupia

It is the first beach of the two in Koutsoupia. Next to the small fishing harbor, somewhat isolated from the activity yet also part of it… Desolate, with shallow waters, small in size, and fine sand are its characteristics, with large plane trees covering it and creating a natural umbrella for almost the entire day. The rock in the middle, Monopetro, hides old stories that you will only learn if you find a grandfather to tell you.

Steo#19 Koutsoupia

It is a plant with pink flowers, loves the sun, enjoys the saltiness, and blooms in spring even on its trunk. The Koutsoupia, hence the name of the settlement and the beach. Picturesque, with fine sand and pebbles. Colorful swimsuits, sunbeds, bodies oiled up playing paddle ball, music from the beach bars, as well as charming tavernas that have been here for many years, create a unique scene.

Step#20 Giama- Koutsoupia

A continuation of the Koutsoupia beach stretches northward—a sea embrace favored by those who prefer to forgo their swimsuits. Its key features are fine sand and pebbles. Be sure to notice the small comp house you’ll encounter along the way.

Step#21 Kokkino Nero- Kolibithra

The “natural” pool—one of the area’s hot spots.

A small stone opening that only allows you to enter standing up, for a three-minute icy plunge into therapeutic waters. This is the spring from which the settlement took its name, known for its pools of healing cold water. Here, someone can drink the mineral water, swim if they can withstand the 7°C temperature, or enjoy a “bath” in the mud pools.

These waters have recognized therapeutic properties, as confirmed by their official certification. They are invigorating, rich in minerals, and considered beneficial for anemia, nervous conditions, weakness, and indigestion
