Family holidays to Sissi present the quiet side of the Crete at its finest. If sunset seafood dinners, sandy coves and a relaxing atmosphere are your thing, then holidays don’t come much better than Sissi!

Relax At Kolokitha Beach

With its sugar-white sand and turquoise waters, the serene Kolokitha Beach has all the ingredients for a perfect family day by the sea. But the crystal-clear ocean isn’t the only thing to feast your eyes on - the beach sits across from a pocket-sized island – also called Kolokitha – and it’s backed by beautiful olive groves. The views from Kolokitha Beach are truly spectacular, so make sure you have got your cameras at the ready!

The Wonders Of The Milatos Cave

If you fancy picking up the pace and heading for a night out (that’s a little livelier than Sissi’s pretty marina), the neon lights of Malia’s bar-speckled strip are just a 15-minute taxi ride away. You can get the party started with a few drinks in a bar before taking your pick of the massive selection of clubs where you’ll find big-name DJs, foam parties, silent discos and pool parties.
