The quiet continuation of the west coast

Kastraki is a long ribbon of fine sand between Mikri Vigla and Alyko — the same sea as Agios Prokopios, with far fewer people.

About this beach

Kastraki usually stays sheltered when the meltemi blows. 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 Kastraki opens to the west, so it usually has natural cover from northerly, north-easterly and north-westerly winds.

Kastraki has sand underfoot with shallow, gently shelving water — handy for families with young children.
