Situated on the northern point of the Peloponnese, this picturesque village has more than a touch of Greek magic. Cocooned in lush, pine-covered hills, overlooking the Patras Gulf, Niforeika boasts its own attractive beach washed by bright turquoise waters, where it's tempting to stay put all day long. Ideal for escaping the masses, holidays to Niforeika are the sort of place where you blend in with the locals and enjoy the stunning natural beauty. Just a few kilometres from Kato Achaia where you'll find a wider selection of open-air tavernas and shops, sleepy Niforeika has a small handful of locally renowned tavernas serving the catch of the day. Criss-crossing walking trails beckon you up into the pine-scented hills behind the village, and if sightseeing is more your thing, visit the centre of Patra - a lively port with plenty of history and a Medieval Castle. Niforeika is also perfectly placed to pay visit to the famous archaeological site of Olympia - birthplace of the first Olympic games.
