The western end of Kounopetra beach is easily reached by a paved road leading to a parking area at the taverna on the sea front. see on street view. There are sunbeds at this end of the beach and it is overlooked by a few villas so in high season it can be expected to be 100% textile. Walk left (east) along the beach and even in high season, with discretion it may be possible to get naked. The cliffs are higher and more vertical at the eastern end so do heed the warnings about rockfalls. If you continue east passing a small rocky outcrop you will come to Mania beach.

The only thing that spoils this beach is the amount of seaweed!

Weather from OpenWeatherMap

2017 October: At the beginning of the month we walked to Kounopetra beach from Mania beach. It was deserted and the taverna and villas all appeared closed so being naked would probably not have been a problem anywhere on Kounopetra beach. However there was a lot of seaweed so we headed back east past Mania and beyond.
