Zorba’s statue overlooks proceedings from his clifftop position above the Grecian gorgeousness that is Kalogria beach. Everything here seems to have something just a little more and a Stoupa summer holiday’s a chance to experience Greece with nuances. For example, the sea is as warm and calm as anywhere else but there are fresh cold water springs actually pouring inside it which give you peculiar temperature changes. Your Stoupa summer holiday beach not only lives up to expectations of amenities, facilities and water sports but is also the venue for music festivals throughout the year where both traditional and western music is featured. This whole area of Mani has beautiful countryside and a pleasurable way to make the best of the scenery of a summer holiday to Stoupa is either by bike (rentals on the beach) or on horseback (Proastio Riding Centre). The village has its own rich history: Thanks to resistance organised from tower houses, some of which have been restored, unusually this part of Greece was never conquered by invaders. But this history is augmented by the fact that Stoupa summer holidaymakers are not far from the Olympia and Sparta and the ancient sires here are plentiful. Don’t forget to make the most of local hospitality and you’ll note that there’s just a bit more olive oil used here due to the masses of olive groves.

Take a summer holiday to Stoups and follow in Zorba’s illustrious footsteps.

Zorba the Greek was written here so there must be something pretty special about a summer holiday to Stoupa.
