Just west of the main Agia Pelagia beach and 27 km from Heraklion City lies the beach of Kladissos. This beach is ideal for those who want to avoid the summer crowds found in the central Agia Pelagia beach and in the other surrounding beaches.
This beach is less crowded and more isolated than the main beach of Agia Pelagia but still close to the centre of the cosy town of Agia Pelagia. It is nice to take a stroll to the smaller beaches of Agia Pelagia if you are looking for more quiet, peaceful places to sunbathe or enjoy the clear water of the sea.
The beach has fine gravel and green waters, which are almost always calm. It is very well organized, since the hotel has placed several umbrellas, deck chairs, bars, showers and changing rooms for its customers. This beach looks like private, but do never forget that all beaches in Greece are public and open to the public. Kladissos beach is always quiet and remains secluded, since locals prefer the nearby Agia Pelagia because they don’t know about the beach.
Very close to the shore carved post-Minoan tombs have been found. Moreover, archaeologists have revealed a large public building of the third to fourth century AD, called Prytaneion. This was used for the meetings of the politicians of the town, that was probably somewhere here. Some ceramic findings of the area are exhibited in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford.

Με την πάροδο του χρόνου ο οικισμός εξελίχθηκε σε ένα πολύ δημοφιλές τουριστικό θέρετρο με την παραλία να αποτελεί σήμερα δημοφιλή καλοκαιρινό προορισμό τόσο για τους κατοίκους του νησιού όσο και για τους επισκέπτες. Ο οικισμός οφείλει την ονομασία του στην εικόνα της Αγίας Πελαγίας η οποία βρέθηκε μέσα σε μια σπηλιά στο βόρειο τμήμα της παραλίας.
Savathiana: A female monastery 23km far from Heraklon City, it is believed that it took its name from an older monastery which was built there, that of Agios Savas.

Those of the monks that took part in the defense of besieged Chandax were slaughtered, or were transported as captives to Constantinople. In the monastery there are the graves of the of Kokkinidi family fighters.

Η παραλία είναι μεγάλη με το μήκος της να φτάνει τα 450 μέτρα και καθώς βρίσκεται σε κλειστό κόλπο, αν και στο βόρειο τμήμα του νησιού, είναι προστατευμένη από τους βόρειους ανέμους. Στην ακτή θα συναντήσετε άμμο αλλά υπάρχουν και περιοχές με βότσαλο.

The beach of Psaromoura is a small beach to the west of the main Agia Pelagia beach and 27 km far from Heraklion City. This beach is more favoured by the locals more than the tourists.
This beach is known for its quietness, but unfortunately it is unprotected from the north summer winds (meltemia). Many people consider this a very nice and quiet beach, where there is also a small shop that sells drinks and ice cream.
