Prokopos Lagoon (Greek: Λιμνοθάλασσα Πρόκοπος) is an important wetland in the Kotychi-Strofylia National Park. The lagoon lies nestled between the Strofylia Forest and the Black Mountains (Mavra Vouna). It is part of the Natura 2000 network and protected as an internationally important wetland under the Ramsar Convention. The lagoon is a vital refuge for numerous bird species, including herons, ducks, and coots. It covers an area of approximately 1,500 hectares and is relatively shallow, with an average depth of 0.5 to 1.5 meters. Traditional fishing is practiced in the area, and there are birdwatching observation posts.

Landscape: The region is characterized by the contrast between the deep blue sea, shifting sand dunes (up to 10 meters high), and dense forests. There are eight marked hiking trails (H1-H8) and four cycling routes (C1-C4) with varying levels of difficulty. Birdwatching: Special observation towers at the lagoons offer views of the rich birdlife. Beach: Kalogria Beach borders the national park and is known for its fine sand and shallow water.

The Strofylia Wetlands are part of the Kotychi-Strofylia National Park. The area is protected under the Ramsar Convention and is part of the Natura 2000 network. Strofylia Forest: The largest pine forest in Greece (predominantly Pinus pinea) stretches across 22 km² along the coast. Lagoons and Marshes: The ecosystem includes the Kotychi, Prokopos, and Araxos (also known as Papa) lagoons, as well as the Lamia marsh. Biodiversity: It is an important stopover for migratory birds on the western migration route. Inhabitants include herons, flamingos, sea turtles, and rare duck species.

The view extends across an olive grove and the newly built railway line to the Gulf of Corinth. In the background, the Greek mainland can be seen with mountain ranges, on whose crests several wind turbines are visible.

Due to its location on the edge of the beach, the pebble beach is actually relatively quiet and peaceful even during the season.

The Prokopos Lagoon (also known as the Kalogria Lagoon) is a significant wetland. It lies nestled between the Ionian Sea, the renowned Strofylia pine forest, and the Black Mountains (Mavri Ori). The lagoon is an integral part of the Kotychi-Strofylia National Park and is internationally protected under the Ramsar Convention and the Natura 2000 network. It covers an area of approximately 600 hectares and is very shallow, with a depth of only 0.5 to 1.5 meters. A narrow channel, about 2.5 km long, connects the lagoon to the sea, while two small rivers supply it with fresh water.
