Monolithi
22km of uninterrupted golden sand — one of Europe's longest beaches — beginning 5km north of Preveza. Named safest beach in Europe. The northern sections are effectively empty even in August. Beach bars and water sports cluster at the southern end.
Alonaki
A compact, sheltered bay with exceptionally clear water and white-rock formations at its edges. The enclosed geology creates calm water even when the Ionian is rough. Less organised than Monolithi and more intimate.
Kastrosykia
A Blue Flag organised beach north of Preveza, near the base of the Zalongo rock and close to the ruins of Kassope — the natural rest point in a day combining archaeology with swimming.
Vrachos – Loutsa
Further north toward Parga, a long, relatively undiscovered beach. Fine sand, clear water, seasonal tavernas and a largely Greek clientele in summer. A good destination for a full day combined with a lunch stop.
Lygia & Kanali
Two beaches on the Preveza bay side, sheltered by the Gulf's enclosed waters with calmer conditions than the exposed Ionian coast. Good for families with young children who prefer still water.
Agios Sostis
A quieter sandy beach south of Monolithi with fewer facilities and a more local character. Preferred by residents who know Monolithi's peak-season dynamics and seek the same water quality with fewer visitors.
