New Year’ holidays spent riding the waves seem a great option for many, locals and those who come from distant parts of Greece to Lagouvardos. It is a beautifuly positioned beach with the most frequent waves in Greece. It is famous among the surfing enthusiasts who can access it conveniently by car as opposed to other few surf island beaches in Greece.
It is always quite a sight to see so many people in the winter waters while the beach is holding memories from her summer visitors
Messinia has an endless list of beaches and they are all so diverse in their size and sand quality from very light white sands, through golden, little pebbles and volcanic rocks. Lagouvardos is one of those ‘golden’ sandy beaches and it stretches for two kilometers having rock formations on either side and it is surrounded by pine tree forest.
It is one of the Kyparissia gulf beaches where the sea turtles caretta-caretta make their nests. During the summer months there is a surf rental and surf school (Beachbreak Lagouvardos) operating on the beach and a canteen/bar opens with umbrellas and sunbeds. There are also showers and cabins to change.The beach is located 2 km north of Marathoupoli, a picturesque fishing village with many taverns, shops etc and with lovely views of the island Proti. It is only 5 km away from the town of Gargalianoi.
