Chrissa Camping
Chrissa Camping is located on a hill with stunning views across vast olive groves to the Gulf of Corinth and beyond. There are 55 pitches with electric hook-up points available (10A). They are well-shaded and mainly terraced, which means that everyone can enjoy the spectacular views of the surrounding countryside.
Camping Poros Beach
The Poros Beach Camping and Bungalows is a resort located in the southern part of the island of Lefkada. It is built on the side of a hill and is 60-150m away from the beach. The site is at the end of a steep, winding, narrow lane (3 km long with ten hairpin bends). The owners have made a massive investment in building apartments to rent at the top of the site. Here, you will find the on-site facilities, which include the reception and a small shop where bread and croissants are delivered daily.
Coralli Camping Bungalows
Coralli is an attractive holiday complex located on the island of Serifos, one of the western Cyclades. The island is famous for its 72 sandy beaches, and one of the most popular of these, Livadakia, is adjacent to the site. Pitches have welcome shade and the sanitary facilities are modern and well maintained. Leisure amenities include a swimming pool and a lounge bar in addition to a good restaurant. A car hire service is available. The complex also comprises a number of self-catering bungalows and holiday apartments and a well stocked shop.
Camping Kastraki
Ancient Assini, where Camping Kastraki is located, inspired the Nobel Prize winning poet, George Seferis, to write one of his most beautiful poems. This alone attracts the more romantic traveller to head for this wonderful coast. Others attracted by the magic of the shores of the Argolid will not be disappointed. Camping Kastraki, run personally by the owner, offers 170 good pitches set amongst the eucalyptus and pine trees that border a narrow shingle beach. Many will stay here for just a few nights whilst touring the Peloponnese but it is a site that attracts many long stay visitors for the windsurfing, swimming and the peace and quiet, which in some large sites is hard to find.
Camping Alphios
High above ancient and modern Olympia, Camping Alphios enjoys spectacular views, both across the adjoining countryside and to the coast at Pyrgos. It provides 97 pitches, 40 for tourers, all with 16A electricity and many with high reed screens that provide shade. Olympia is a popular tourist destination with dozens of coaches each day bringing tourists from around the world to this small town and the adjacent archaeological sites. However, the area also offers opportunities for walking and cycling in some wonderful scenery and this site provides a good base for excursions to the surrounding northern Peloponnese countryside.
Camping Drepano Igoumenitsa
Sitting just 5km from the port of Igoumenitsa, on a beautiful peninsula surrounded by lush greenery and close to the sandy beach of Drepano, this basic but well-cared-for site caters well for both tent users and caravanners. There are 80 pitches of varying sizes, some with hardstanding, most with electricity, some with shade and almost all with excellent sea views.
Camping Hellas International
There is a warm welcome from the English-speaking brother and sister team whose family has owned and run Camping Hellas since the sixties. It's in a beautiful setting in a 500-year-old olive grove, right next to the beach and the calm blue waters of the Pagasitikos gulf. There are around 120 pitches, all with 16A electricity. Pitch sizes vary, and some parts are all level, and shade is plentiful thanks to the olive trees.
Camping Apollon
Campsite Apollon is located close to ancient Delphi in Central Greece. This campsite has 120 touring pitches which are marked out on terraces and most of which have some shade. The facilities are basic and could be stretched in high season. The pitches with the best views are those furthest away from the facilities. Several seasonal/permanent pitches are occupied year-round. There is a restaurant on site which offers a full menu.
Camping Karda Beach
The popular holiday island of Corfu offers many sporting and leisure activities and access to it is easy, and comparatively cheap, via one of the many ferries from either Igoumenitsa or one of the Italian ports serving the Greek mainland. Camping Karda Beach offers a quiet low season site with excellent facilities, close to the beach and the island’s main town, Kerkyra. It also offers a popular high season site for families and those looking for good weather, good beaches and lots of activities close at hand. It has 101 good grassy pitches of which 95 are for touring units, all with electricity (16A Europlug), under tall trees.
Lacara Camping
This back to basics campsite has two springs and a stream flowing into a small marsh and 10 km. of forest roads in private woodland, an idyllic location, but with a risk of mosquitos following a period of rain. On the east coast of the Sithonia peninsula, the setting is stunning.
Camping Triton II
What do we look for in a good campsite in Greece? Given the excellent Greek weather, the answer is probably a good, flat pitch with some shade, excellent toilets and showers that are spotlessly clean, a small shop and proximity to a beach and local tavernas. Well, here you have it all! This is an exceptional and well managed site with 200 touring pitches (50-120 sq.m, 16A electricity) under high screens, just across the road from Drepano beach. Local tavernas are within strolling distance and the town’s shops are about a mile away.
Camping Erodios
Owner Efthymios Panourgias has given great thought to what is needed and has provided everything to the highest possible standard, in an environmentally friendly way. The owner is constantly on the site ensuring these standards are maintained and usually has plans for further improvements.
Camping Alkioni
Camping Alkioni is situated about 50 km west of Athens in the bay of Agia Sotira and provides a beachside location with a backdrop of tree-clad mountains. It offers a relaxing escape from everyday life with pleasant walks around the craggy headland and wonderful views out to sea. Explore further along the coast and discover enticing little coves and secret bays.
Camping Village, Episkopos
The Island of Lefkada is one of the few Ionian Islands that you can access without using a ferry. It is conveniently connected by a small, floating bridge to the mainland.
Camping Fournia Beach
The village of Kastros, and the Chlemoutsi castle that towers above it can be seen for miles across the flat landscape towards the coast. Camping Fournia Beach is owned by the four Lefkaditis brothers, and their wives have ensured that this new site is awash with flowering shrubs. The site offers 90 first class pitches and modern facilities, and the bar and restaurant sit in a landscaped area high above the beach with spectacular views across the sea to Zakynthos. Steps to the beach provide private access to the sandy cove below. The castle is being restored and is now used for summer concerts. Nearby are the Kyllini baths dating from Roman times, where the benefits of a mud bath can still be enjoyed.
Camping Milos
The island of Evia could easily be mistaken for part of the mainland, given that it is connected to Attica by two bridges and several ferries. It is, however, the second-largest Greek Island, Crete being that much bigger. Camping Milos is situated on the coast, just over 1.5 km. west of Eretria and provides 100 pitches. Forty touring pitches provide space for caravans and motorhomes under screens of varying heights.
Camping Diana
Camping Diana is a small site with 42 pitches, 15 of which are under dense tree cover and are only suitable for tents. The remaining pitches are located off a steep concrete road in small open areas and pitch size will be small at best. There are three pitches at the entrance suitable for large motorhomes and caravans over 8 meters. There are 3 other larger pitches on-site for outfits over 8 meters. Each has a 16A electricity supply nearby. Despite being rather dated, it is a pleasant site and located very close to the archaeological site of ancient Olympia with its museums and other attractions.
Camping Enjoy-Lichnos
This is a quiet campsite with attractive views of the Ionian Sea and the coastlines towards Preveza and Parga. The site has been created on a steep incline with extensive terraces and pitches under constructed shade, all with 16A electricity. The ground levels out in front of the beach and pitches here have sea views. There are 150 touring pitches and a large area for tents under the shade of the 500-year-old olive trees. The sandy beach is the site’s main attraction, and various water-based activities are available. The nearby resort of Parga is a lively place of narrow streets and a wealth of tavernas. It can be reached using one of the many water taxis which frequent the area throughout the day.
Camping Kouyoni
The busy motorway south of Thessaloniki clearly shows the popularity of Halkidiki and this coastal area. Camping Kouyoni provides a site that is popular with local Greeks, who have had static caravans here for many years, and also has flats that are available to rent. With a total of 86 pitches, only 40 are available for touring units and only a few of these are suitable for motorhomes and larger caravans. There is limited space for car parking and this further restricts access. The pitches are more earth than grass and they could become muddy if it rains.
Camping Iza
Sithonia is the middle of three peninsulas on Halkidiki and is a popular Greek tourist destination with a good motorway south from Thessaloniki to Neos Moudania. Camping Iza is one of the larger sites on Sithonia and therefore has more facilities than many smaller sites. Behind a good sandy beach and amongst mainly olive and willow trees, the 215 pitches are clearly marked, and some have high screens to offer some shade. Only the two front rows have sea views.

Greece

Greece and its islands have a long legacy of art, music and literature. Since the days of Homer, its beauty has been celebrated: the azure of the Aegean Sea, the iridescent morning light and the grand marble temples.

Campsites in Greece are scattered across the country from the north, where keen hikers can climb Mount Olympus, to Crete, where the mythical minotaur lived under the palace at Knossos, which tourists can still visit. Athens is, of course, a popular destination with its ancient acropolis and charismatic atmosphere.

The island's clear waters and white sands make them highly popular with holidaymakers and ideal for watersports enthusiasts. Camping in Greece is a great chance to do a spot of island hopping – it's a leisurely way to fully explore what each place offers while soaking up the sun and sampling the local seafood.

Camping in Greece guarantees a relaxing break with plenty of culture for those who want it. Start your search with Alan Rogers and refine your results by region or theme for specific locations.

Weather in Greece

ATHENS WEATHER


Greece's typical Mediterranean climate lends itself to mild and often wet winters and dry summers. The country is mostly sunny throughout the year. The northern part of the country can be freezing during the winters, even receiving snow in some areas. Winter is milder in the south.

Athens: Greece's capital has a Mediterranean climate with hot and dry summers and sometimes cold and wet winters. Temperatures average 29°C in August but can exceed 38°C, making it the hottest capital city in Europe.

Santorini: The famous island has a semi-arid climate with warm weather from May through September. It's also extremely dry; you can expect very little rainfall during the summer months. Winters are cool but not freezing - temperatures average around 13°C.

Thessaloniki: This port city has a Mediterranean climate but experiences much greater temperature variations than other parts of the country, with winter temperatures occasionally dropping as low as -9°C and snow falling on the northern plains. The city receives almost 300 days of sunshine per year.

Corfu: This island in the Ionian Sea is still warm and dry during the summer but receives much more precipitation during winter than Santorini and other popular islands. Because of this, Corfu is covered with much more lush vegetation than other parts of Greece. Winters can be cloudy but rarely cold.
