Paleochora
Situted
on the south western coast of Crete, the former fishing village  of
Paleochora, sits on a small peninsula jutting into the vast blue expanses
of sea and behind is surrounded by a lush green landscape with oleanders
and olive trees. The mountains of Sfakia form a dramatic rugged backdrop
and to the west there is a wonderful sandy beach, which is several
kilometers long. The small seaside town has a large selection of tavernas,
shops and cafes, and on a summer’s evening the bustling streets become
a much loved strolling and meeting point. The area is ideal for beach
lovers, or for walkers eager to explore the south west coast and the
surrounding mountains. From Paleochora, boats ply back and forth along
the coast, stopping at a number of villages on the way to Chora Sfakion.
It is also possible to take boat trips to see Dolphins as well as
the remote island of Gavdos, which is the most southerly point of
Europe.
