23.354-acre Κολπος Αλκυονιδων. 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 2076 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. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Κολπος Αλκυονιδων - West maps at 23,359 acres behind 30.9 miles of shoreline. At index 1.4 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. Roughly 2% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. Tip to tip the water measures near 8.5 mi with a 7.1-mi widest point. Κορινθιακος Κολπος - Βοιωτια - Sector 09 sits 4 mi north — 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.

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 39 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 (33 ft) | Surface lure, Paddle-tail soft plastic |
| Fall | 4 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (39 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 Shoreline point: a point around 39 ft that scores good in fall. 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 39 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 Shoreline point, a point in about 39 ft of water that rates good for greater amberjack in fall. 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 Κολπος Αλκυονιδων - 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.

Κολπος Αλκυονιδων - West is about 2076 ft (633 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 Κολπος Αλκυονιδων - 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.
Shoreline point is the top-rated area: a point in about 39 ft of water that rates prime for atlantic bonito in summer. The interactive chart above rates every 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 Κολπος Αλκυονιδων - West 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.
