Overview
Costa Navarino is a unique luxury resort area situated on the southwest coast of the Peloponnese peninsula in Messenia, Greece. Renowned for its commitment to sustainable tourism, it offers a stunning array of pristine beaches, world-class golf courses, and high-end accommodations set against a backdrop of ancient history and lush Mediterranean landscapes. The location is an ideal base for exploring one of Greece’s most beautiful and least commercialized regions, blending modern leisure with cultural immersion.
The wider area is steeped in history, most famously surrounding the Bay of Navarino, the site of a pivotal naval battle in $1827$. Visitors can easily access significant archaeological treasures, including Mycenaean palaces and medieval castles, providing a rich context to the local culture. Accessible primarily by road from nearby regional ports like Kalamata or Katakolon, Costa Navarino serves as a tranquil, upscale gateway to the historical and natural wonders of the Peloponnese.
Famous for its perfect omega shape and protected nature reserve status. This is one of Greece's most famous natural beaches.
Tip: The shallow, clear water makes this bay perfect for swimming and sunbathing, especially for younger visitors.
Hike up to the Venetian castle ruins for breathtaking panoramic views overlooking Voidokilia Beach and the beautiful Bay of Navarino.
Tip: Start your hike early in the morning to avoid the intense midday sun, and bring water.
Discover the well‑preserved ruins of a major Mycenaean palace, dating back to the 13th century BC, famous for its association with the Homeric hero Nestor.
Tip: Hire a local guide at the site to fully understand the importance of the ancient tablets and architecture.
Explore the charming, crescent-shaped harbor town located on the Bay of Navarino. It features neoclassical architecture, lovely waterfront cafes, and the New Navarino Castle (Niokastro).
Tip: Enjoy a refreshing Greek coffee or ice cream at one of the main square's traditional cafes under the plane trees.
Utilize the calm, protected waters of the bay for activities like paddleboarding, kayaking, or sailing.
Tip: Many hotels or local providers offer beginner lessons and equipment rentals right on the beach.
This protected wetland is an important stopping point for migratory birds and is excellent for bird-watching and nature photography. It's located right next to Voidokilia Beach.
