Getting Around

Car hire and bus or private transfers are all easy options from Chania airport. If you’re planning to stay in the city of Chania itself, it’s probably not worth braving the traffic, but for those who want the freedom to explore the area independently, car hire is a good option. Taxis are widely available and there’s a good bus service in the area too.

Agioi Apostoloi beach

The city's popular sandy beach is fringed with lively tavernas and cafes, but if you fancy a break from the crowds, the stunning Agioi Apostoloi beach is only a twenty-minute walk out of town. Beach hopping is a breeze due to the bus service travelling from Chania town along the coast to the village of Kalamaki, so you can lay your towel on them all!

Visit pretty Almyrida, Kamisiana and Kolymbari

Chania has a variety of places you can escape to away from the stresses and strains of modern life. Resorts like Almyrida, Kamisiana and Kolymbari are among former Cretan villages that have evolved into popular tourist resorts without losing their traditional feel. Think laid-back tavernas rather than crowded nightclubs.
