Nature
Heraklion stands out as one of the most sought-after destinations, particularly in the summer months.
The beaches of the region, both in the north and the south, attract those in search of vibrant blue experiences.
Whether you desire to be in the heart of bustling activity or seek solitude, there are beaches to suit every preference.
In close proximity to the city, Agia Pelagia Beach lies to the west, while to the east, in the Municipality of Hersonissos, options include Limanakia, Stalis, and Potamos Beach.
Venturing southward, Listis Beach offers an intriguing exploration into the origins of its name.
Include in your itinerary the enchanting Moni Koudouma Beach, a place of unique beauty, as well as Agiofarago, Matala, and, of course, Kommos Beach.
