Frangokastello: Your Tranquil Haven for Family Getaways

The plain owes its name to the medieval castle that graces its landscape, a testament to its rich history and charm.

To the south of the castle, you'll find the beach of the same name, complete with all the facilities. For those in search of a more secluded retreat, Orthi Ammos Beach, situated east of Frangokastello, awaits. 

Other stunning beaches include Agia Pelagia, featuring its own church, and Vatalos. Heading east, towards the road to Skaloti, you'll find the hang-gliding take-off run on the right side of the road. To the west of the castle, just 100 metres away, there's a small port where you can moor your boat and purchase fresh fish early in the morning.

Here, you'll discover a variety of accommodation options including rooms to let, apartments, and guesthouses. Additionally, there are numerous tavernas offering special Sfakian flavours.
