Explore the stunning coves of Hersonissos, located only 27km east of Heraklion. Beginning with the rocky cape Sarandaris and ending at the harbour of Hersonissos, these beaches boast calm waters, thanks to the cape’s protection from the frequent northwest winds. Access to all coves is easy, with the bustling town of Hersonissos within walking distance. Starting from the west, the first beach is the dock from where you can dive, located near the picturesque chapel of St. George Sarandaris. Then, the beach of Sarantari Cape offers a sandy shore with shallow water, perfect for swimming and snorkeling. There is even a naturist beach nearby, located past the main road that runs alongside the coves. After Sarandari, the beach of Giofyri awaits with white coarse sand and deep waters. Then, there are numerous very small and narrow beaches, before reaching the large and wide beach in front of the hotel Creta Maris. At the end of the coves, the seaside road is full of restaurants, cafes and shops. Even if you do not want to swim, a stroll from the port to the Cape of Sarandaris is a unique experience, with sights of the chapel of St. George and the lighthouse, as well as the early Christian basilica of Hersonissos. Embark on an adventure to the coves of Hersonissos and explore all the wonders it has to offer
