8.307-acre Ακτες Σιθωνιας. 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 Northern Aegean and Thermaic Gulf. This child is clipped to the exact source polygon and a trip-scale ownership window. Conservation notice: the section intersects a Natura 2000 Special Protection Area (site type A). The designation is not represented as a blanket fishing ban; anglers must still check current site-management, species, seasonal and national fishing rules. 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 1335 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 season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
The outline encloses 8,307 acres, worked by 30.2 miles of shoreline. With a shoreline index of 2.4, this water is all arms and coves — edge habitat well beyond its acreage. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 9% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. The basin spans about 9 mi end to end and 3.4 mi across at its widest. Its nearest charted neighbour, Ακτες Συμβολου - West, is 53 mi to the north.
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.

Come spring, look for european seabass tight to the bank in 3 to 25 ft. Expect a summer slide to 2 to 30 ft, then a winter hold in 10 to 55 ft. Start at Shoreline point. It's a point holding about 36 ft of water and rates good come fall. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A surface lure or a paddle-tail soft plastic is the honest summer answer here.
| 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 | Shoreline point (36 ft) | Slim metal lure, Minnow plug |
| Winter | 10 to 55 ft | midday | open water | Slow soft-plastic shad, Suspending minnow |
Start shallow in spring: gilthead seabream sit in 3 to 35 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 2 to 45 ft, and winter fish settle into 20 to 100 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening.

Spring common dentex on Ακτες Σιθωνιας - Central hold shallow, usually 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. The chart's best answer is Sharp break — drop-off, 87 ft, prime for summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening.

Start shallow in spring: red mullet sit in 5 to 55 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 4 to 70 ft; cold water stacks them in 30 to 140 ft. Top water on the chart: Sharp break, a drop-off in the 39 ft range, good in summer. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite.

Early season atlantic bonito use the shallows, holding in 15 to 100 ft. Even in summer they hold at 5 to 90 ft; winter keeps them in 50 to 220 ft. Put Shoreline point first on the milk run — a point near 36 ft that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

In spring, greater amberjack run shallow here, mostly 30 to 180 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 20 to 220 ft before dropping to 70 to 300 ft for winter. Spring greater amberjack concentrate at Sharp break, a prime-rated drop-off around 87 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite.

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 Σιθωνιας - 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 Σιθωνιας - Central is about 1335 ft (407 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 Σιθωνιας - 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.
Sharp break is the top-rated area: a drop-off in about 87 ft of water that rates prime for common dentex 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 Ακτες Σιθωνιας - 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.
