Komos Beach

Komos (or Kommos) is located on the outskirts of the village of Pitsidia, 66 km southwest of Heraklion and just 2 km north of the famous Matala. It is essentially the southernmost part of the long continuous beach of the Gulf of Mesara. The entire coastal front of the area is exposed to the westerly winds, which are relatively frequent in the summer and some days when the wave is quite high, care is needed. The northern part of Kommos, Potamos or Potamoserma, has been a well-known destination for nudist lovers for many years, since the time when hippies flooded the area. There are only a few tamarisks and barren lands around, as Kommos is located in a protected archaeological zone. Further south, near the archaeological site of Komos, there is an organized beach with umbrellas, sunbeds, toilets, showers, a canteen and a lifeguard. Around there are many tamarisks and sand dunes, where you can admire the white sand lilies, which bloom at the end of summer. If you want to find a place to stay or eat, you can choose Pitsidia or Matala.
