Vythouri beach is a small and secluded beach on the back side of Dirfys, overlooking the Aegean Sea. The waters are crystal clear and turquoise while the beach has sand and fine pebbles.Vythouri Beach, due to the high steep cliffs that surround it, sees the sun for a few hours a day. The sun is there in summer for barely six hours. It is a beach that is mostly shaded during most of the day. This is due, as one will notice immediately upon being there, to the special formations of the rocks that surround it. So, as the sun turns and hits the rocks, they create a natural effect that is just right, especially for campers. Also, it is not an organized beach like other beaches but also in that it doesn’t have a shop nearby. There are no shops in the area within 5 km so visitors need to have the essentials stocked before arriving at the beach. The waters are slightly cold and it has a wild beauty that you rarely find in Evia.A beauty that both charms and awes you, as exploringgreece reports.The sure thing is that this beach in Evia will show us one of the best versions of the Aegean.There are always free campers on the beach during the summer.The route of the beach is starting from Chalkida and heading towards North Evia – Nea Artaki. In the centre of Nea Artaki we turn right towards Steni Dirfyos. about 14 km later, before the village of Katheni, we turn left towards Palioura. From Palioura calculate a route of about 17km during which you will go up and down the mountain through a route dominated by green and grey. A truly special route. Then turn right towards Glyfada and after about 2km you pass through the village and from there you continue on a dirt road for 5-6km to the beach. Be careful because the last km is a dirt road. Vithouri is a total of 53km from the centre of Chalkida and calculate that you need about 1 hour and 30 minutes.
