Paleochora
Paleochora's wide, deep crescent of fine sand is perhaps the best
beach in any resort on Crete, making it well worth the two hour drive
across the mountains from Chania to get to this simple farming and
fishing village.
Nightlife centres around the tavernas and bars on the main street, their
tables spilling out into the road which is lcosed to traffic in the evenings.
Conversations over dinner soon lead to new-found friendships among the
cosmopolitan, relaxed crowd and the atmosphere is altogether very laid back.
Whilst you're here, be sure to make efforts to walk the breathtaking
( in more ways than one ) Samaria Gorge, with fabulous scenery and rocky walls rising
to 1,000 feet in places, but remember to bring your trainers or walking shoes.
