THE AREA
The beach and tavernas of Ravdoucha are just a couple of minutes' drive away. Off the beaten tourist track, the village is well known to locals who enjoy their food, due to the excellent reputation of the local tavernas hidden away amongst the olive groves near to the coast.
Ravdoucha has a pebbly beach with tamarisk trees and a rocky seabed, making it ideal for snorkeling.
Kolimbari is a 10 minutes' drive from there. With its remodelled and beautiful harbour, lovely beach and tavernas, cafes, doctors, dentist, supermarkets and all required amenities open all year around, it is a nice friendly but upmarket small town in this lovely part of Crete.
Kolymbari 's long and beautiful beach is ideal if you're looking for a relaxed spot to sunbathe - it's not too touristy, so there's plenty of space to spread out. The crystal clear water is perfect for swimming and ideal for all and the beach front tavernas are friendly and offer stunning options for lunch or dinner out next to the gentle waves lapping almost to your feet!.
Crystal clear waters await you, the waterfront and the beautiful harbour, which has just enjoyed a multi million euro revamp, encloses sailing and fishing boats, and is ideal for a stroll in the afternoon or a good meal in one of its taverns overlooking the the sea, the hills and the mountains rising majestically in the background.
Every Friday there is a "laiki", an open vegetable and fruit market in Kolymbari where one can buy fresh locally grown products, fish, locally made cheeses, honey and enjoy the amazing produce that is abundant locally.
