Plan your sunset visit
Arrive 60–90 minutes before sunset
In high season, allow time to park, walk down to the beach and settle in before the final hour of light. July and August especially reward an early arrival; a sunset visit feels better without a last-minute rush.
Leave room for the beach
If you would like time for a swim or photographs, build that into your arrival plan before golden hour. Outside peak summer the experience is usually quieter, but it is still worth taking your time.
Watch the light change
Porto Katsiki faces the open Ionian Sea. The hour before sunset brings softer light to the west coast; stay to enjoy the final colours as the sun reaches the horizon.
