• Platanias – The famous beach resort of Platanias is just a 10-minute drive. The old village is built on a hillside with fantastic view of the sea. The beach of Platanias is a lovely long beach where you can find everything that is provided on well organised beaches, as beach bars, sun beds, watersports etc. On the east side of the local harbor, close to Agia Marina, you can enjoy swimming in the several small artificial coves. During summer nights, there is a wide gamut of bars and night clubs if you want to go the extra mile.



• Maleme – The beach of Maleme is just a 5-minutes drive. It’s part of the continuous beach of 16 kms from Chania city to Kolymbari village. An ideal place for sun tanning, relaxing and romantic evenings watching the sunset. A blue-flag award winner. Parts of the beach are organised but there also quieter parts where you can enjoy the sea in serenity. Moreover, there are many sea view restaurants, tavernas and bars to taste some local treats.
