Kokkino Ammoutsaki Beach is one of the most isolated and unique destinations in southwestern Crete, known for its wild beauty and the distinctive colors of its rock formations.

Geographically, it is located on the shores of the Libyan Sea, west of Krios beach and ancient Viena, serving as one of the most remote points of the coastline towards Elafonisi.

The landscape is characterized by the rugged charm of the Cretan south, featuring crystal-clear waters and a shore that owes its name to the reddish hues of the sand and the surrounding rocks. The atmosphere at Kokkino Ammoutsaki remains exceptionally quiet and pristine, as the difficulty of access protects it from mass crowds, making it an ideal refuge for those seeking absolute isolation and contact with raw nature.

Access to the beach is possible only via trail (following the E4 European path) or by boat, as it is situated in an area without a road network. Regarding organization, Kokkino Ammoutsaki is a completely unorganized beach, without any infrastructure whatsoever; therefore, visitors must be fully equipped with water and essentials. It administratively belongs to the Chania Prefecture and is adjacent to the equally remote Kambi Lakkos beach.
