Anissaras Holidays
Overview
Holidays to Anissaras are perfect for a relaxing family getaway, away from the hustle bustle of packed-out tourist resorts, but close enough to lively Hersonissos if you do fancy a change of pace. An ideal location for those with children, Anissaras holidays offer a well-rounded break that will leave you wanting to return time and time again.
This picturesque resort stretches out over a large and often hilly terrain, ideal for peaceful family walks and getting out and about to explore the countryside. If you’re looking for a bit of extra “va-va-voom,” you can even take a stroll across to the lively nearby resort of Hersonissos. This popular beach is brimming with rocks and pebbles and lined with luxury hotels, plus there are plenty of family-friendly tavernas and shops for you to browse while you’re there, too.
While a lot of the stunning shoreline in Anissaras is rocky, the resort offers some excellent man-made sandy beaches, especially in front of the large, luxurious hotels. Remember that there is no such thing as a private beach in Crete – so why not spend a few hours on the sandy stretches in front of the five-star hotels and beach clubs? You won’t be disappointed! With so many man-made beaches carved out form among the rocks, Anissaras is the place to be if you’re a family who loves those long, lazy summer days. Besides the beach, there are plenty of excursions to be had in the surrounding resort, from the beautifully preserved village of Lassithi Plateau to history and culture in the capital of Heraklion.

Popular with young tourists and offering the best sea on the island, Hersonissos gives you the opportunity to have a “holiday within a holiday”. Along the picturesque promenade (if you can drag yourself away from the turquoise waters for an hour or so), you can choose from a variety of warm and welcoming restaurants, all offering a delicious food. If you’re seeking a little quiet time, maybe as you watch the sunset - keep a look out for the Bench of Deep Thoughts!
Dive At Dia Island
If there’s any day trip you must do when you’re on holidays in Anissaras it’s a boat ride across to Dia’s Wreck, in the Agrilia Bay on Dia’s Island. This famous wreckage is a French 20m wooden and steel cargo boat that sits on the depth of the ocean and is now home to a stunning variety of marine life. And yes, whether you’re an experienced diver or you’ve never even put on a pair of flippers, you can swim right down to the wreckage and come face to face with the magical creatures that live amongst it! It’s an experience you won't forget – and you may even make a few underwater friends along the way - who said mermaids aren’t real?!
