26.262-acre Ακτες Κολπου Πεταλιων - Στυρα. South Greece coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 CDI-audited Greek hydrographic and HCMR survey/composite DTM contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official Greek WFD named coastal or transitional assessment water in Central and Southern Aegean. This child is clipped to the exact source polygon and a trip-scale ownership window. Coverage classes and uncertainty limits are disclosed; this is a fishing-planning chart, not a navigation chart or catch forecast. The water tops out around 439 ft. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Drawn out, this is 26,260 acres of water rimmed by 30.6 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.3), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. Roughly 2% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. End to end it runs roughly 9.4 mi, about 8 mi across. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Ακτες Κολπου Πεταλιων - Στυρα - South West, 5 mi west of here.
Occurrence evidence does not promise a catch or establish that retention is legal. Current seasons, closures, protected species, gear rules and local restrictions always control. The roster may combine exact-water monitoring with habitat-filtered official regional evidence; it does not imply that every species is equally abundant throughout the mapped section.

Spring puts european seabass in skinny water — 3 to 25 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 10 to 55 ft. Shoreline point is the standout, a point at roughly 23 ft, rated good for fall european seabass. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A surface lure or a paddle-tail soft plastic covers the summer program.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (23 ft) | Paddle-tail soft plastic, Shallow minnow plug |
| Summer | 2 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (23 ft) | Surface lure, Paddle-tail soft plastic |
| Fall | 4 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (23 ft) | Slim metal lure, Minnow plug |

Hellenic Coast Guard official ports review was reviewed, but no stable government record establishes a public fishing entrance, parking or launch for this exact mapped child. This is an access-evidence gap, not a claim that public access does not exist. Verify land ownership, port and harbour rules, protected areas, local signs, parking, safety, permits and fishing permission before entry.
Private land and private launches need the owner's permission — please ask first.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Greece waters are set by the Greek Government fisheries services — and special regulations can apply to Ακτες Κολπου Πεταλιων - Στυρα - South specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Check Greece's current national, EU, port and protected-area rules before every coastal trip. Although individual recreational sea-fishing licences were abolished, method restrictions, minimum sizes, daily limits, protected species, seasonal measures, marine parks, fisheries restricted areas, swimming zones and harbour directions still apply. Regional or island-specific controls may change independently. A WFD polygon, source-audited contour, fishing spot or port reference never grants fishing, retention, shoreline entry, parking, launching or safe-navigation permission.
