Best Beaches and Bays

The Akrotiri peninsula near Chania features a diverse coastline ranging from deep natural harbors to secluded rocky inlets. This selection includes Seitan Limania, a narrow canyon-like cove carved into limestone cliffs, and Stavros Lagoon, famously used as a filming location for Zorba the Greek. Visitors can explore Souda Bay, one of the Mediterranean's largest natural harbors, or find sheltered swimming spots at Loutraki and Machairida, known for their clear waters and views of the Cretan Sea.
