The beach Katsouni is located south of the village Agalianos between Ligres and the dorp of Agia Fotini. Katsouni is a fantastic sandy beach with lovely waters and large rocks rising all around, protecting you from prying eyes. It is a nudism-friendly beach, but it’s not "forbidden" to wear your swimsuit! The beach is so long and secluded that you might meet nobody around when you come here, especially in late or early summer. The beach can be reached either by walking westwards from Ligres waterfall.
