Chania Reviews -Beaches Maleme

Chania Crete was the background of our holidays last summer. We have been to Crete many times before, but we love to come back again and again every summer. Of course, Crete is so big that you can't see it all in one summer or two.

Last time, we went to Maleme, a small resort west of Chania. The hotel was small and didn't have many comforts, but the beach was on our foot day and night. The coast was sandy, clean and unwindy. It get crowded at about noon, but we went early in the morning and would leave a bit before noon, so we could relax at our own time. Just thought it would not be safe to swim when the sun is at the peak, because you will probably get sunburnt, so we normally choose safer hours and then spend the time in the balcony or the cafeterias, till the afternoon comes and we go swimming again.

Maleme is actually a very comfortable location because it is half way from Chania and Kissamos, so it is very easy to get the bus and go to either of them for an evening walk.
