Koum Kapi Beach : info and guided tour

Overview of Koum Kapi Beach

Koum Kapi Beach is located in Chania, on the Akti Miaouli waterfront, very close to the city center. This narrow beach runs along the bay and stands out less for its size than for its setting, between the clear water and the continuous urban landscape.

The area is known for its city atmosphere, with the seaside promenade and the buildings that extend Chania’s waterfront. At Koum Kapi Beach, the sea takes up most of the landscape, while the shoreline remains directly connected to everyday life in the city.

The beach offers open views over the bay and the hills that frame Chania. Its character is simple and local, with a seafront popular for swimming, walking and relaxing by the water, in an environment that is clearly part of the city.

Koum Kapi Beach has a special place in Chania because it combines a beach with a lively coastal neighborhood. The Akti Miaouli address places it in an easily recognizable part of the waterfront, where you can enjoy the city’s maritime atmosphere without leaving the center.
