8.223-acre Εξωτερικες Ακτες Καλδερας Σαντορινης. North West 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 1144 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. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The outline encloses 8,224 acres, worked by 25.5 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (2) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. 6% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Call it 8.2 mi long by 4 mi wide at the broadest reach. Εξωτερικες Ακτες Καλδερας Σαντορινης - North sits 6 mi east — the closest neighbouring chart.
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.

When the water first warms, european seabass slide up into 3 to 25 ft. By summer they slide out to 2 to 30 ft, and by winter most fish are in 10 to 55 ft. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a surface lure or a paddle-tail soft plastic rigged through the warm months.
| 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 |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: gilthead seabream in 3 to 35 ft. As the season builds they drop to 2 to 45 ft, wintering in 20 to 100 ft. Time it for early morning and the evening.

Early season common dentex use the shallows, holding in 20 to 130 ft. Expect a summer slide to 30 to 180 ft, then a winter hold in 60 to 260 ft. Put Rock reef first on the milk run — a rock pile near 14 ft that grades good for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: red mullet in 5 to 55 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 4 to 70 ft before dropping to 30 to 140 ft for winter. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

Shoreline point is the standout, a point at roughly 187 ft, rated good for fall greater amberjack. 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 Εξωτερικες Ακτες Καλδερας Σαντορινης - North West 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.

Εξωτερικες Ακτες Καλδερας Σαντορινης - North West is about 1144 ft (349 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 Εξωτερικες Ακτες Καλδερας Σαντορινης - North West. 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.
Rock reef is the top-rated area: a rock pile in about 14 ft of water that rates good for common dentex in spring. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every 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.
