the local shop is only 2kms away and the beach and bars are only 5kms away. You will also find supermarkets and lidl only 5kms from the villa

rethymno is only 7kms away and heraklion airport is 80kms from the villa. Overflowing with history and its amazing venetian and turkish architecture, rethymnon is built around the harbour with its bustling harbour life. This traditional town is packed with atmosphere, the second largest in crete, where narrow, shop-lined alleyways and beautiful old houses mix with bars, restaurants and tavernas. There is a lively nightlife here with a range of discos and clubs, if you fancy a night out. The beachfront promenade boasts more shops, bars and tavernas. The beach, which extends east for 14 kms, starts in the middle of the town. If you decide to eat in rethymnon, you must try the fish dishes; the freshly caught fish is mouth-watering!.

heraklion
the capital of crete, and the main airport and port for the island, heraklion is more of a touristy town with the usual trappings. But if you ignore these, you will find an amazing amount of the island's history, myths and legends in the museums and you will be able to experience more of the spectacle of crete's architectural heritage. Most of the history of the minoa era can be found in the archaeological museum of heraklion.

just south of heraklion is the palace of knossos. If the minoan myths, legends and culture are of interest to you, spend some time here. If it doesn't interest you, visit anyway, you will be inspired!

samaria gorge
the longest gorge in europe at 18 kms is very well known for its incredible beauty. The gorge is only 3 metres wide at some points along the route and the sides of the gorge rise to a height of some 600 metres. A stream flows through the gorge between the white mountains and the volikas mountain. Approximately 43 km south of the town of chania, hiking through the samaria gorge is only allowed between may to october.

arkadi
the historic monastery at arkadi (approximately 10 kms south west of agia triada) is the most venerated symbol of freedom in crete and lies in beautiful surroundings. Probably built in the 5th century by the byzantine emperor arkadius, the monastery acquired its glory and fame during the revolution of 1866-1869 when the turks conquered the monastery. The people boarded themselves in the monastery and blew themselves up rather than be captured by the turks.

argiroupoli
this small village, about 27 kms southwest of rethymnon, is close to the ancient site of lappa, which is currently being excavated. So far finds have dated from the classical, hellenistic and roman periods, and are on show at the rethymnon archaeological and historical museum. Argiroupoli's other feature is it's waterfalls, the tavernas at the bottom use the water for drinking and also for keeping the fish for the fish dishes. The scene is beautifully green and peaceful; the tavernas are nearly all under the trees so they are cool. You can climb (rather steep!) up to the village if you want some spectacular views. Definitely worth a visit.

lake kourna
a local beauty spot (this is a beautiful lake in a mountain bowl) and a picturesque suntrap. There are tavernas, shops and a beach. You can also take a boat out across the lake, or go snorkelling. The water in the summer looks emerald. In december, it has been warm enough to eat a meal out in the open by the lake
