Koutoulou Beach is one of the most hidden and isolated treasures of western Crete, ideal for those seeking absolute tranquility in a wild, untouched landscape.

Geographically, it is located on the western coast of the Chania Prefecture, near the village of Livadia and north of the Chrysoskalitissa Monastery.

The landscape is characterized by the striking contrast of crystal-clear, deep waters with the large rocks and unique geological formations surrounding the shore. The beach features coarse pebbles and sand, and its seabed is exceptionally rich, making it a favorite destination for snorkeling and underwater exploration enthusiasts. Due to its orientation, it is often exposed to western winds, offering an authentic glimpse of the wild beauty where the Libyan and Ionian Seas meet in the region.

Access is possible by road via a dirt track starting from the village of Livadia, requiring careful driving, but the view and serenity offered by the coast reward the visitor. Regarding organization, Stou Koutoulou is a completely unorganized beach, without any tourist infrastructure, preserving the sense of isolation intact. It administratively belongs to the Chania Prefecture and is an excellent choice for those wishing to escape the busy tourist paths.
