Faliraki is one of the oldest and largest resorts in Greece, and renowned for its sandy beach, wealth of water sports, and plethora of bars and clubs. In fact Faliraki has acquired quite a reputation as a partygoer’s paradise and is particularly popular with British tourists. When the sun goes down, Faliraki is buzzing with bright lights, happy hours, karaoke bars, big-name DJs, and pulsating clubbing scene.
