About this beach

Kounoupes has partial shelter in the meltemi — calm some days, choppy on stronger ones. That comes from the measured shape of the coastline around it and our curated wind records — a seasonal picture, not a live forecast, so check live wind and waves before you go.

The bay at Kounoupes opens to the east, so it usually has natural cover from northerly, north-easterly and north-westerly winds.

Kounoupes has sand and pebbles underfoot with shallow, gently shelving water.

For amenities, Kounoupes has an organised beach and a beach bar.
