Beach· Zakynthos· Greece — Ionian, Saronic & Argolic

Porto Koukla (Lithakia Coast)

37° 42.3′ N · 20° 50.8′ E · approximate

A narrow shingle beach on the Lithakia shore, between Agios Sostis and Limni Keri, looking straight across to Marathonisi, with a taverna on the sand.

Practical

Coordinate is Leeda's restaurant on the beach (OpenStreetMap), the landmark for this stretch; Kamaroti beach is further south-west at 37.6951, 20.8407 (OpenStreetMap). This shore lies inside the marine park and no source used confirms which zone the water off it is in or that anchoring is allowed: do not anchor here unless you are clearly inside Zone C (conical buoys) and clear of the Zone A (yellow) and B buoys. Safer plan: berth in Agios Sostis harbour or anchor off Limni Keri (both Zone C per SailingIssues) and come by dinghy at 6 knots maximum.

Best for

A dinghy trip for lunch with a view of Turtle Island
