Stoupa Introduction
Stoupa was once just a small fishing harbour, but its fine beaches, the best in the region, have made it a popular small holiday resort since the nineteen-eighties. Well-supplied with accommodation, shops, tavernas, bars and other useful facilities, it appeals very much to families, with its not unduly sophisticated and pleasantly informal atmosphere. A family holiday here need never become boring, with all the attractions of the superb beaches including water sports, and an excellent horse-riding centre nearby.
But Stoupa is not only about family holidays – it is the gateway to some wonderful opportunities for exploration of the magnificent scenery, on foot, by bike or car, and the ancient sites of Olympia, Sparta and Mistra are easily reached from here. The Mani is unique in the splendour of its scenery and in its architecture – fortified towers and Byzantine churches and chapels, some no bigger than a large beehive – and Stoupa is the ideal centre for the discovery of the area.
