From Afrata a road winds down to the small, gravelly pebbly unknown beach of Afrata. The beach supports a small snack bar. 4km south from Afrata is located the Historical Gonias Monastery
24 kilometers far from Chania city at the West, just off the Old National Road to Kastelli - Kissamos, it is found the beach of Kolymbari, a sandy and pebbly beach by the foot of Rodopou peninsula. Close to Kolimbari is the Gonias Monastery (1km).
The beach is well organised, it offers accommodation facilities, food and drink and facilities for swimming and sunbathing (sun beds, umbrellas, sea sports etc). After Kolimbari beach you reach Rapaniana beach to east.

Afrata is a picturesque and traditional village village approx. 35 km from Hania town, on the Peninsula of Rodopou, and 5 kilometres from Kolympari or Kolimbari village with its shops, restaurants and a marina.
There are several tavernas and traditional kafenions in the village, and a small rocky and sandy cove with a kantina and recently also sunbeds. Ideal for snorkelling and scuba diving but also for swimming.
Menies bay is where the sanctuary of Diktynna is located on the peninsula of Rodopou. A little piece of paradise at the end of a long (17km) bumpy dirt road that still invites you to have a swim even in late January.
The temple of Diktynna was located on the hill to the right (south) of the beach and several objects found there - such as the statue of Diktynna with a hound - are exhibited in the archaeological museum of Chania.
Access is possible only by a 4WD car , as well as by private or rented special motorbikes, since the 23 kilometers unasphalted road, usually being in bad condition, is difficult for conventional vehicles.
