Plan your trip
to Falasarna

Located on the western coast of Crete, approximately 53 km from Chania and 13 km from Kissamos, Falasarna Beach is a destination that combines natural beauty, historical interest, and modern comfort. With its clear turquoise waters, long stretches of golden sand, and award-winning facilities, it’s no wonder Falasarna has become one of the most popular day-trip destinations in western Crete.

The beach is renowned for its crystal-clear sea, inviting swimmers into refreshing, pristine waters. Its impressive length ensures that even during the high season, there’s plenty of space for everyone—whether you prefer the convenience of organized areas with sunbeds and umbrellas, or the freedom of open spaces where you can lay down your own towel.

One of Falasarna’s most unforgettable features is its sunset. With nothing obstructing the view between the beach and the horizon, the sky transforms into a spectacle of vibrant colors, making it one of the most beautiful sunsets in Greece. It's a perfect way to end a day on the beach.

Just north of the beach, visitors can explore the ruins of the ancient Hellenistic harbor of Falasarna, a once-thriving city-state with great maritime significance. The area is also a designated Natura 2000 site, attracting botanists and nature enthusiasts who come to observe the many endemic plant species that grow here.
