Molos Beach, also known as Attika Beach, is a large sand beach in the settlement of Molos, situated in Lefkimmi Bay, on the east coast of southern Corfu. Despite its size, the beach is somewhat hidden and therefore a lesser-known treasure in a beautiful natural environment.
How To Get To Molos Beach
Molos Beach is located in the settlement of Molos, near Lefkimmi, and can be reached on foot, with a private vehicle, like a rental car, scooter, or boat, or by public transport.
By car, Molos Beach is a 4-kilometer drive from Lefkimmi, 7 kilometers from the Port of Lefkimmi, and 40 kilometers from Corfu Town. From the road, there is a small public path next to the Attika Resort Hotel to get to the beach. You can reach Molos Beach from the adjacent Alykes Beach.
Green Bus line B4 connects the beach with Lefkimmi and Corfu Town.
Beach Description
Molos Beach stretches out along Lefkimmi Bay, between Kaliviotis Beach to its west and Alykes Beach to its east. The beach is oriented towards the northwestern direction and looks out on the east coast of Corfu and the west coast of Greece’s mainland, with the Straits of Corfu in the middle.
The beach has a length of approximately 2.9 kilometers and a width varying between 5 and 25 meters. The beach and seabed are sandy and the seabed has a gentle slope. For the first few meters, the bathing water remains shallow. The water is relatively calm and very clear, creating the perfect conditions for swimming.
The coastline at Molos Beach is mostly natural, with only a few developments, including a large resort hotel and some beach villas. The area is very green with lots of trees and other dense vegetation, creating a beautiful picturesque view with the turqoise waters, golden sand, and mountainous landscapes on the horizon.
Facilities At Molos Beach
Molos Beach is only party organized, around the Attika Resort Hotel. There you can find sunbeds and umbrellas for rent, showers, trash binds, and a beach bar and restaurant. Other parts of the beach are unorganized and have no facilities.
