Olympiaki Akti is a resort town in the eastern part of the regional unit of Pieria in Greece. Its beach is part of the Olympian Riviera and is next to the resort village of the same name. Also known as Olympic beach it offers wide sandy beaches, clear waters and warm, shallow sea. Therefore it is a good beach for families with children.
In the water swim little fish. There is very little seaweed, and no rocks. The bottom is flat. There are a few nude bathers which gather at the south end of the beach, several hundred meters beyond where the textile crowd begins to thin out. The endless Olympic Beach / Olympiaki Akti beach gives a feeling of peace and relaxation.
