ABOUT THE AREA



Milatos is a small village on the north coast of Crete that has not been affected by the development of tourism in the area. Nevertheless, the majority of the inhabitants in the bay of Milatos live from tourism. it has remained quiet and tranquil. Many day trippers from the nearby mega-tourist resorts Malia, Hersonissos and Agios Nikolaos come to Milatos in summer for a few hours by rental car. Another small beach town, Sissi, is not far away.

Numerous tavernas and some cafes, especially on the seafront, offer their services and prices are still remarkably low. The friendly locals always have time for a little entertainment and they often provide free traditional music and dance evenings.

The official name of the place described on this page is Paralia Milatou. Translated, this means "Beach of Milatos". The actual village of Milatos is about 1.5 kilometers inland from the settlement at the sea. You drive through the village when you arrive. From a tourist perspective, however, the name Milatos has become established for the much larger village by the sea.

Take it all in on a driving tour, trek through Europe's longest gorge, hike to the cave where Zeus was born or cycle among orchards on the Lasithi Plateau. Leave time to plant your footprints on a sandy beach, and boat, kayak or snorkel in the crystalline waters.

Crete's natural beauty is equalled only by the richness of its history. The island is the birthplace of the first advanced society on European soil, the Minoans, who ruled some 4000 years ago. You'll find evocative vestiges all over, most famously at the Palace of Knossos. At the crossroads of three continents, Cre
