3.111-acre Ακτες Ν. Κω. Central 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 1059 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.
Drawn out, this is 3,111 acres of water rimmed by 10.8 miles of bank. At index 1.4 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. 9% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Figure 4.6 mi of water from one end to the other, 1.5 mi at the beam. For a second option, Ακτες Ν. Κω - Central West lies 7 mi west.
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.

Start shallow in spring: european seabass sit in 3 to 25 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 2 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 10 to 55 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a surface lure or a paddle-tail soft plastic until the fish tell you otherwise.
| 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 | open water | Surface lure, Paddle-tail soft plastic |
| Fall | 4 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Slim metal lure, Minnow plug |
| Winter | 10 to 55 ft | midday | open water | Slow soft-plastic shad, Suspending minnow |
Come spring, look for gilthead seabream tight to the bank in 3 to 35 ft. They move out to 2 to 45 ft in summer and finish the year down in 20 to 100 ft. Best bite is early morning and the evening.

Start shallow in spring: common dentex sit in 20 to 130 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 30 to 180 ft, and winter fish settle into 60 to 260 ft. The spot to know is Shoreline point, a point in about 125 ft of water that rates good for common dentex in fall. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening.

Spring red mullet on Ακτες Ν. Κω - Central hold shallow, usually 5 to 55 ft. They move out to 4 to 70 ft in summer and finish the year down in 30 to 140 ft. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: atlantic bonito in 15 to 100 ft. The depth story barely changes: 5 to 90 ft through summer, 50 to 220 ft in winter. Top water on the chart: Shoreline point, a point in the 125 ft range, good in fall. Time it for early morning and the evening.

Spring greater amberjack on Ακτες Ν. Κω - Central hold shallow, usually 30 to 180 ft. By summer they slide out to 20 to 220 ft, and by winter most fish are in 70 to 300 ft. The chart's best answer is Shoreline point — point, 125 ft, good for fall. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening.

Structure-wise the chart holds 5 features, led in depth by Deepest basin at roughly 954 ft.
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 Ν. Κω - Central 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 Ν. Κω - Central is about 1059 ft (323 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 Ν. Κω - Central. 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.
Shoreline point is the top-rated area: a point in about 125 ft of water that rates good for greater amberjack in fall. Open the map above to see every rated spot for each species and season.
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 Ν. Κω - Central 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.
