15.647-acre Ακτες Κυθνου. 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 509 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. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
The outline encloses 15,646 acres, worked by 49.8 miles of shoreline. A development index of 2.8 means a maze of bays and points: far more casting targets than a round bowl of the same size. 6% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Call it 11.1 mi long by 6.7 mi wide at the broadest reach. If the bite dies, Εξω Σαρωνικος Κολπος - Sector 07 is 39 mi to the northwest.
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.

Early season european seabass use the shallows, holding in 3 to 25 ft. Expect a summer slide to 2 to 30 ft, then a winter hold in 10 to 55 ft. Put Shoreline point first on the milk run — a point near 34 ft that grades good for fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a surface lure or a paddle-tail soft plastic and you're in the game.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Paddle-tail soft plastic, Shallow minnow plug |
| Summer | 2 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (34 ft) | Surface lure, Paddle-tail soft plastic |
| Fall | 4 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (34 ft) | Slim metal lure, Minnow plug |
| Winter | 10 to 55 ft | midday | open water | Slow soft-plastic shad, Suspending minnow |
In spring, gilthead seabream run shallow here, mostly 3 to 35 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 2 to 45 ft, and winter fish settle into 20 to 100 ft. Time it for early morning and the evening.

When the water first warms, common dentex slide up into 20 to 130 ft. By summer they slide out to 30 to 180 ft, and by winter most fish are in 60 to 260 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Sharp break: a drop-off around 101 ft that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

Spring puts red mullet in skinny water — 5 to 55 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 4 to 70 ft; cold water stacks them in 30 to 140 ft. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

Come spring, look for atlantic bonito tight to the bank in 15 to 100 ft. Through summer count on 5 to 90 ft; the winter hold is 50 to 220 ft. Start at Shoreline point. It's a point holding about 48 ft of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: greater amberjack in 30 to 180 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 20 to 220 ft before dropping to 70 to 300 ft for winter. The spot to know is Sharp break, a drop-off in about 101 ft of water that rates prime for greater amberjack in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

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 Κυθνου - 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.

Ακτες Κυθνου - South is about 509 ft (155 m) deep at its deepest point. 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.
Official coastal monitoring from Greece national fisheries and coastal monitoring agencies informs the european seabass, gilthead seabream, common dentex, red mullet, atlantic bonito, greater amberjack, bluefish, common sole roster for Ακτες Κυθνου - South. The mixed roster combines exact-water records where available with habitat-filtered regional evidence; not every species is documented at this exact water, and it is not a promise of equal abundance or a catch on a particular trip.
Sharp break is the top-rated area: a drop-off in about 101 ft of water that rates prime for common dentex in summer. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
For european seabass, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Ακτες Κυθνου - South is regulated by the Greek Government fisheries services. Check the official Greece regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
