Camping Hellas is situated on the Pilion peninsula, on the east coast of the Greek mainland. The Pilion is a mountainous area with high peaks where you can even ski in winter. There are also a number of bays and beaches. You will enjoy the environment!

Signposted footpaths lead you over the kalderimi (old donkey trails) to the mountain villages in the vicinity. However, spending a lazy day on the beach is also fun! Have a swim in the calm see or float in a boat on the deep-blue waters.

In the olive grove, on the beach

The campsite is actually one large olive grove. At the side of the beach, the surface is level, with spacious pitches in close proximity to, or sometimes literally by the beach. On the other side there are also spacious pitches, on terraces and under shady olive trees. Guests do not have to cross a road or pathway to get to the sandy beach and the sea.

Hellas is a quiet campsite, especially in the low season. However, during weekends in high season it may be somewhat busier because of the excellent restaurant popular with many people. There are typical Greek chairs to sit on and you will enjoy the scrumptious regional dishes, often prepared with fresh fish and seafood. The location of the restaurant, the terrace and the bar is very attractive: right at the beach.

Sanitary facilities

The sanitary fixtures were partly renovated in 2017 and look nice and modern. An older section has also been earmarked for renovation.

Travelling party: Seniors

In an olive grove, terraced down to the sea, 11 miles southeast of Volos (immediately before the larger Camping Sikia). Family-owned and run, the site has good facilities including washing machines. Reliable free WiFi throughout. In late October we got a pitch right on the shore of the bay by a narrow shingle beach. A new toilet/shower building is almost ready but there are no locks on the shower cubicle doors. There is also no provision to hang towels or clothes inside the new small cubicles, which means that campers have to undress and dress in the public area and leave their belongings there. Privacy, personal safety and security are surely more important than modern smoked glass doors? It is a short walk along a footpath into Kato Gatzea village, with tavernas, a bakery, pharmacy and mini-market. The site’s exit drive runs steeply uphill onto the busy main road, with blind corners in each direction – a road that is totally unsuitable and unsafe for cycling. The campsite restaurant/bar was open, though no longer serving meals. ACSI Card rate applied. Advised to phone ahead in mid-winter, when there are very few campers due to the colder weather, though it was warm enough for sea-bathing in late October.

Excellent campsite, really friendly owners, extremely obliging, put us on a lovely pitch near the disabled facilities. Camp is right on the beach, everything very clean, bread and other provisions available. Restaurant on site and you can get anything off the menu as takeaway. Free WiFi also.

We spent 4 weeks here from end of September 2019. It was paradise- so we returned mid August & hoping to stay until October (covid willing!) This campsite is, by far, the very best we have stayed with our caravan. We have been lucky to have a large pitch alongside the beach. I am disabled so take my wheelchair to the two steps and manage the 4 metres to our loungers (which we leave on the beach throughout our stay) The excellent WIFI covers this area. I manage the further 4 metres to the sea. The shelving means that I can float away in warm water after only one metre. To complete this information for those using wheelchairs (I have ME/CFS & a spinal problem) Hellas has wonderful facilities for disabled visitors. This year all the amenities have been refurbished to a standard found in the best hotels. The shower suite for those with disability had room for the wheelchair, a ‘smart’ lock (no handles) AND plenty of hot water.
Hellas is paradise for campers. Warm, friendly owners. Fridge & freezer available. Shade even on parts of the beach. Large pitches beautifully arranged in the olive grove.
I would recommend this site to all whether disabled or not.
