About Kolokitha
Kolokitha is a sandy beach on Spinalonga Peninsula, facing north-east. It lies in a closed bay, sheltered from almost every wind. A dirt track leads to the beach. Nothing to eat or drink is mapped within 300 m, so bring water and shade. The sea is warmest in August, at about 25 °C. It is above 22 °C from June to October.
Written from map data (OpenStreetMap contributors), our own measurement of the open sea around the beach and NOAA sea temperatures (1991-2020 averages).
When is it busy?
