Accommodation in Paralia Kimis
Paralia Kimis is the port of Kymi. Nearby are Soutsini Beach and the beach area of Kymi; ferries to Skyros depart from the nearby port of Kymi. This brings together a port at the destination and several points of interest in the surrounding area. Soutsini is about five kilometres beyond the port.
Port and fishing fleet
Paralia Kimis is five kilometres from Kymi and serves as its port. The local port has a significant fishing fleet. The distance makes Kymi a separate point of reference: if you include the beach area in your plans or are planning to take the ferry to Skyros, look out for the place name Kymi. The fishing port, on the other hand, is a feature of Paralia Kimis itself. This distinction helps you keep the port and nearby destinations separate when planning.
Soutsini Beach: sand and activities
Nearby Soutsini Beach has clear water and fine sand. The beach also has space for beach volleyball and water sports. Sand and water describe the character of the beach; beach volleyball and water sports add a different focus and appeal to sporting interests. When choosing a destination, you can weigh these aspects separately: is the beach's character most important to you, or would you also like to consider possible activities on the water? Soutsini is therefore a specific beach option near Paralia Kimis.
Kymi beach area: dining and promenade
The beach area of Kymi has fish tavernas, café-bars, and pastry shops; a promenade runs along the main road. The different types of establishments help you assess what is on offer according to your preferences: a fish taverna focuses on food, while a café-bar and a pastry shop offer a different experience. The promenade adds another point of reference in the same area alongside these dining options. If dining options or a promenade for a stroll are also part of your travel decision, the beach area of Kymi is a separate point of reference alongside Soutsini and the port. Individual businesses may change, so check a specific venue before visiting.
