At the exit of the impressive yet awe-inspiring Gorge of the Dead lies a plain of olive groves, where the seaside village of Kato Zakros and its quiet beach are located. The fertile soil, nourished by springs and abundant water, has favored settlement in the area since ancient times. The beach is surrounded by archaeological sites and marked hiking trails. The beach features fine pebbles and turquoise waters. Sunbeds are available for visitors.
