  • filter_dramaDo

    *Both the Paleochora Beaches are Blue Flag beaches and both have life guards in attendance in the peak season.

    *The Sandy Beach on the western side of the peninsula has a lovely sand, is well stocked with beach umbrellas and some bars. It provides fabulous safe bathing, and is well used by families. A treeline at the top of the beach provides extra shade. Watch out for the wind though!

    *Catch a ferry, west to Elaphonisi or east to Chora Shakia.

    The town enjoys a traditional long siesta, with shops open late into the night - very nice shops, too.

    *Several large supermarkets are in the town - these do not keep the siesta.
  • filter_dramaEat
    On the east is a Rocky beach, the harbour and some of the town's evening eateries - the remainder are mostly on the main street, which closes to traffic at 7PM from May to October, when the tables are set out. It's a great chance to hear the local music and enjoy some traditional Greek/Cretan cuisine.

    Lots of choice of places to eat and drink - you'll hear the music bars but Agios, at the crossroads by the church, is good value.

    Have a look for the local tavernas, in particular try ODAS next to the Agricultural bank.

    For fish try: To Kyma (The Wave) by the Rocky Beach,The Galaxy or The Caravella.

    The Grameno Taverna, 5 km out on the western road towards Kondura, is rewnowned for its authentic Cretan food and well worth a trip out of town.

    In the opposite direction, there's the Alpha Kafenion at Azogires which does the world's best omlette!
    *Paleochora's only Internet & Gaming Cafe. Has 30 pc's for internet access offering services for skype with cameras, msn messenger, usb, cd and dvd burning and gaming etc..

    If you find a 'locals' taverna you might be lucky and find the local krassi (wine) or tsikudia (raki).
