Overview

The beach of Georgioupolis, one of the largest sandy beaches in the prefecture of Chania, stretches for 10 km. Its eastern part lies beyond the river Perastiko, where the coast becomes even wider. The sandy beach is organized, offering all the necessary amenities and is ideal for families, thanks to the shallow depth of the sea. Here, visitors can enjoy water sports or even horse riding on the sandy areas by the sea. The beach combines the beauty of the sand and sea with the green landscape of the area, creating a magical setting.
