Long sandy beach in the small cute Foinikunda village. There's a short but very steep hill to climb just to the west of the village; just take your time pushing uphill, while admiring the views and the cute little houses along the super-narrow street winding through the upper village. It's over before you know it 👍

Finikounda (Greek Φοινικούντα, also Finikounta, Foinikounta, older also Finikous Φοινικούς) is a Greek port and seaside resort in Messinia. Together with some surrounding settlements, it forms a local community in the Methoni district of the Pylos-Nestoras municipality. Under the old name Paralia Lachanadas Παραλία Λαχανάδας, the place was recognized as a rural community (kinotita) in 1929 and renamed in 1930. In 1997, it was incorporated into Methoni, and in 2011 Finikounda and Methoni were merged into the new Pylos-Nestor municipality. In 2011, the village itself had 592 inhabitants. Since the beginning of the In the 21st century and with the completion of the Methoni-Koroni coastal road, Finikounda has developed into a tourist resort.

Finikounda is located at the southwestern end of the Peloponnese, roughly halfway between Methoni and Koroni.

Finikounda includes the villages of Anemomylos, Lachanada, Chrizokambos and Loutsa, the uninhabited island of Agia Marina and the sparsely inhabited island of Schiza, about five kilometers from the coast.
