The coast road from Methoni to Nestor’s Palace is a pleasant drive which goes through Pylos on Navarino Bay [which will probably be a bit traffic jammy] and then passes by the picture postcard Giavola Lagoon which is a bird sanctuary and Voidokilia Beach. They are really worth visiting even though the beach can get busy at peak times and weekends.
