Tavernas on Lake Kournas

Highlight • Restaurant

Very nice restaurants right on the lake with a very nice view of the lake. The price is still quite reasonable. Prices between €12-18.

View of Lake Kournas

Highlight • Viewpoint

Lake Kournas was only 7km from our hotel and perfect for a great hike on Crete. At the lake you can go pedal boating, eat and drink and take a relaxing break.

Nice goal to complete a beach walk.

Tip by

10.4 km

A small harbor where you can still watch the fishermen at work and repair their nets.

If you're lucky, you can even buy freshly caught fish directly from the fishermen's boats.

Otherwise, many boat rental companies also offer boat tours.

Agios Nikolaos Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

Very nice little chapel.
The rocky path there is often flooded by the waves and is therefore quite slippery, sturdy shoes are recommended. 🥾
