Απόμερους κόλπους · Μαλεβίζι
A small pebble beach in a private marina, reached by a zigzag path or by boat.
Theseus is a small artificial beach inside a marina at the foot of a gated holiday community. Visitors can use it in summer if they leave the car at the entrance and walk down the 1 km zigzag path, or arrive by boat. There is a canteen and a few sunbeds. The water starts shallow but drops off quickly.
The beach is pebbly with calm, clear water. There's a small bar in summer. It's quiet and protected, a nice change from the bigger beaches.
Malevizi is the area west of Heraklion, with the resorts of Agia Pelagia and Lygaria on a coast of small, sheltered bays. Inland, the villages of Fodele, Tylissos and Kroussonas climb towards the slopes of Psiloritis, with orange groves, olive trees and vineyards. Fodele claims to be the birthplace of El Greco, and Tylissos has Minoan villas. The coast is great for snorkelling and diving, and the area is close to Heraklion yet feels calm.
Heraklion is the heart of Minoan Crete and the island’s busiest region. Knossos and the Heraklion Archaeological Museum are the two places almost everyone visits, and they work well together on one day. In the south, the wide Messara plain holds the palace of Phaistos, the Roman ruins of Gortyna and the famous caves above the bay of Matala. Περισσότερα για Ηράκλειο
