Surpo

It is a beautiful village by the sea of Souda bay. A small river crosses the area and by its sides there are plenty of hotels, rooms to let, restaurants and coffee shops, souvenirs shops. The beach, extending for 300 m., just before the entrance of the village is of golden sand with green-blue waters. From Kalives driving towards the national road and following the sign to Megala Chorafia, is Aptera, having prehistorical, ancient and roman ruins with nice sea view. This is a interesting spot and one of the most important archeological sights of Chania area. A must, for those who are interested in history and archeology.

The small, quiet and unspoilt village of Tsivaras in Apokoronas region, west Crete has few local amenities.  However, the village is ideally placed between the beaches of Almirida and Kalives and the working town of Vamos.  Just minutes by car to the lovely village of Almirida which is built around a crescent shaped sandy beach.

A fabulous village with the perfect location! Still typically Cretan, with a quaint upper village of narrow streets, with either white washed or stone houses, a kafenio which is also a mini market and the delivery point for the post. Tsivaras is only 2 kms from the coast and has gorgeous views of Souda Bay to the north, the White Mountains to the south, verdant valleys looking west to the Turkish fort at Aptera, or east to Gavalohori and the Drapanos peninsula. Set on the main road between Kalives (2kms) and Vamos (4kms), and with many back tracks that lead to the National Highway (in 3 minutes), Kera Beach (in 3 minutes) and Almirida (in 5 minutes). This village also has many different walking trails, including a tiny gorge to the east of the village. A lovely peaceful village with great views, yet so close to the many amenities in Kalives, Almirida and Vamos.
