The
Gulf of Kyparissia (,
Kyparissiakos Kolpos) is a long, curving indentation along the western coast of the
Peloponnese peninsula,
Greece. It lies between Cape
Katakolo at the north end and Cape Konello to the south. Near the northern extreme is the city of
Pyrgos, with the town of
Zacharo near the center and the town of
Kyparissia lying toward the southern end. Flowing into the gulf are the
Alpheios and
Neda rivers. Its southern part is also one of the main breeding grounds of the endangered
loggerhead sea turtle.
