Kata Beach

Kata Beach is a remote and quiet beach located on the west side of Kefalos. The beach is characterized by its wide and open space, with greyish sand that gives it a unique appeal. The beach is also known for its big waves, making it a fun spot for those who enjoy playing in the water. However, caution is advised when entering the water due to the strong waves. The water is warm, and there is often a strong breeze, making it a popular spot for kite surfers. The beach used to have a bar and a place that served food and drinks, and there were also umbrellas and sun beds for rent. However, these amenities are no longer available, and all that remains is a small shack that is out of order. Despite this, some visitors have reported that it is possible to rent a beach set and have some snacks and drinks. The beach is accessible via a not very long stretch of unpaved road. While the road is rocky and filled with holes, it is possible to reach the beach in a normal small car with some extra care. However, visitors should be aware that there is a lot of plastic debris on the beach, and efforts should be made to keep the beach clean. Despite its remote location, Kata Beach is not crowded, providing ample space for everyone.
