The Beautiful Maridaki: Beaches and Gorges

Maridaki is located on the western side of Tsoutsouras (Tsoutsouros) Bay.

The beach is, in fact, the estuary of two surface streams that flow through two of the most beautiful gorges of Asterousia, originating from the heights of Achendrias (Achentrias).

In the area, you'll find a turquoise beach, ideal for swimming, surrounded by lush greenery, including tall plane trees and other aquatic plants.

During the summer months, visitors have the opportunity to enjoy fine meze in the tavernas of the area.

Apart from the gorges that end here, two coastal paths start from the settlement, one leading towards Tsoutsouras and the other towards Agios Nikitas. Both paths are gorgeous and easy, even for inexperienced hikers.
