Location

 Plakias is a blessed placed. 

It's the perfect holiday spot, located on the south coast of Crete. Built along a fabulous beach, which has been awarded with The Blue Flag  . Everything you need is available in Plakias, shops, supermarkets, a wide variety of places to eat and drink, nightclubs, travel & estate agents. The beautiful south facing curved bay in which it sits is ideal for swimming, recreation, relaxing & sunbathing.

The surrounding hills provide wonderfulwalks, on trails through the olive groves and beyond. There is a small harbour (where you can get a boat to several other beaches) and following the beach road you'll end up on a rough track leading to Souda Bay after about 3km. Looking into the horizon, across the sea you can see the southern-most part of Europe, the Island of Gavdos.
