Kefalonia averages a temperature of 30C in the summer (Image: Getty) This idyllic beach is situated in Kefalonia, west of mainland Greece. Fteri Beach is one of the world's most impressive seashores and what’s more, it’s completely unspoiled by tourism. You won’t find any amenities like sun loungers or umbrellas, and it’s usually not at all crowded due to only being accessible through a hike or by boat.

Surrounded by white cliffs and untouched beauty, this is the ideal getaway for those after something away from the busy tourist-heavy beaches. Think Leonardo Dicaprio in the film The Beach. If you’re planning on hiking to the beach it’s important to wear the right footwear and take lots of water.

Previous visitors estimate that it takes 40 minutes to an hour depending on how much of a seasoned hiker you are, but once you arrive at the pristine beach you won’t be disappointed. FamilyOfFive on TripAdvisor says: “The terrain is rocky and not signposted, so you need good fitness and ideally good shoes!” function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.createElement('script');el.
