Varkiza beach, Blue Flag beach in Vari-Voula-Vouliagmeni Municipality, Greece.

Varkiza beach is a sandy coastal area along the Athenian Riviera about 26 kilometers southeast of Athens with clear waters for swimming. The beach provides sunbeds, umbrellas, and lifeguard coverage, with seafood restaurants positioned nearby for visitors.

The beach's developed section was long run as a private resort, successively named DoIt, Varkiza Resort and Yabanaki, before becoming a luxury organized beach (plaz) with sports facilities, parking, dining areas, clubs and changing rooms. The remaining, smaller stretch of coast has stayed free of sunbeds and open to all.

The beach is known for windsurfing and water skiing, and the organized section includes nautical sports facilities alongside clubs and changing rooms. The free section has no sunbeds and stays open to anyone. The shore runs about 1 km, with thick sand that stays shallow far out.

The beach is easily accessible with good facilities including changing rooms and showers available for visitors. Plan to arrive in late morning when the area is less crowded and the water is warm.

More than half of the 1 km shoreline is occupied by a luxury organised beach that has changed names several times, formerly Yabanaki, Varkiza Resort and DoIt. The smaller remaining section has no sunbeds and is open to all. The beach is also known for windsurfing and water skiing.
