Gialova

Couples and families planning coastal days, lagoon outings and village dinners

The Gialova lagoon and Navarino Bay give this coastal village more than one kind of outing. Its pedestrian dining area provides an evening focus; nearby plans can include Voidokilia, Pylos and Niokastro rather than another day in the same spot.

Compare Gialova for couples and families who want to choose a beach each morning and return to a defined village setting. We would weigh a waterfront address against an outlying house by how often you want to use a car during the day.

The lagoon is an important bird habitat. Use permitted routes and leave the landscape undisturbed. Treat access to Voidokilia as a separate plan from the walk to dinner in the village.

Our tip

Check the route to Gialova’s waterfront and to your chosen beach. Voidokilia is a separate outing rather than the shore outside every village address.
