Finikounda 

Finikounda is the “Finkous Limin” that was mention by Pausanias.  Ancient ruins can still be seen scattered around the areas of Analipsi and Anemomilos.

Finikounda is one of the most picturesque fishing villages in Greece.  It is located in a beautiful sheltered bay built almost at the point where the wave lap at the shore. It nestles in a lee anchorage opposite the Islet of Shciza.  Caiques and fishing boats moor in the shelter of its harbour and anchor all along its sandy shore. The seafront is lined with tavernas serving their freshly caught fish. 

Finikounda is famed for its excellent sea and the town has a golden sandy beach with shallow azure waters ideal for swimming. To the east just beyond the rocky jetty is Paradise beach.  Anemomios beach to the west of Finikounda is another popular beach with a broad stretch of golden sand and is back by wild sandunes. There are many other excellent beach nearby to explore. 

Every Year the Municipal beaches are awarded the European Blue Flag.  Finikounda also offers water sport such as wind surfing and sailing in the summer season.
