	ELAFONISSOS - DREAM BEACHES - SkyscraperCity
		A campers’ secret was let out of the bag about three years ago: two of the most beautiful beaches in Greece are on tiny Elafonissos, just off the southern Peloponnese.
		Although Elafonissos is now too crowded for its own good in peak season (mid-July to mid-August), at other times it’s a delight — as cool, relaxed and stress-free as ever.
		The nearest airport is on the island of Kithira, but you’ll have to take a two-hour ferry to Neapolis on the mainland, then another ferry to get to Elafonissos.
