Paralia Katakolo is a beach located in a cosmopolitan area, frequented by locals and visitors alike due to its port. The beach is known for its crystal clear waters, which are shallow enough to walk quite a distance before reaching knee-high depth.
However, the natural characteristics of the beach have been subject to change, with instances of the beach being washed away during the winter season. The beach has also been reported to have issues with waste and algae, indicating a need for regular maintenance and cleanup.
Despite these challenges, the beach remains a popular spot for spending time and experiencing a mix of cultures.
Visitor reviews highlight the crystal clear water and the cosmopolitan atmosphere of Katakolo as the most appreciated aspects. However, they express disappointment with the cleanliness of the beach, citing issues with waste and algae.
If you’re planning a trip to Paralia Katakolo, consider staying in the nearby town of Pyrgos, which offers a range of accommodations and easy access to the beach. Many visitors also opt to stay in the picturesque village of Katakolo itself, where they can enjoy the local culture and cuisine just a short distance from the port and beach.
