Kato Zakros contains a few tavernas but is mainly known for the archaeological site, which contains many hectares of Minoan ruins. The beach is at least half a kilometre long. It is stony and bathing might be difficult in rough weather.

2001: a barefooter said the southern end of the beach was being used by naturists.

2011: the beach had people from north to south and no naturists. It would not have been easy to go nude.

2014: a second nude couple was seen at the southern part of the Kato Zakros main beach.

2018: no naturists but the southern end of the beach was completely empty (and on a Saturday too). Nudity would not have been a problem.

2020: The beach at the southern end had two naturists and no-one else on it. Not a particularly attractive beach. Small beach 200m to the north of town had a couple of nudists but could well be too popular in summer months.
