Ormos Zakros
HELP! This section is lagging behind in development.
Ormos Zakros (Όρμος Ζάκρος) is a pleasant cove on southeastern Crete. Inland from the cove, is Kato Zakros, he site of a Minoan Palace, the fourth in size in Crete. ChartsSee Crete. Radio NetsSee also Crete Local WeatherSee Aegean Sea. The anchorage should be approached from the northern end, to avoid the reefs extending from the shore in the centre and also towards the northern end. At the time of visit (June 2009), the more northern of the two reefs was conveniently marked by a coastal freighter which had run aground on this reef. However, attempts were being made to refloat it at the time, so it may be removed at some stage. Check-in facilitiesAnchor in 5-6 meters in the NW corner of the bay, just off a small shingle beach some 50 meters NE of the beached freighter (if it is still there). The bay is an excellent stop-off for a visit to the Minoan site of Zakros and the Valley of the Dead, where rock-cut tombs are to be found. Offshore Islands and GroupsNone. Marinas & Yacht ClubsNone.
