A tourist resort, very popular and crowded in summer, Stalida is situated at a distance of 3 kilometres at the West of Malia and at a distance of 33 kilometres far from Heraklion at the East. The town counts some 1000 permanent residents. Three local feasts ("panighyri") take place in the area: on the 26th of October in honour of Aghios Dimitrios, and on the 13th of November and 27th of January in honour of Aghios Ioannis (St. John). Accommodation of any kind and for all budgets is plenty; you may find hotels, rooms to let, studios and apartments. Food and drink is not a problem; taverns, restaurants and cafes are abundant, offering a wide range of tastes. There are also some bars and clubs for nightlife and amusement. Of course for more alternatives of amusement you can always pop up to the nearby Malia. Access from Heraklion is possible by public bus, taxi and rented and private car and mortorbikes. The beaches of the area are all beautiful, some of them sandy and suitable for swimming and others rocky and ideal for snorkelling.

The area is one of the oldest inhabited in Crete with a healthy climate and hospitable people.The surroundings are quite enchanting, combining the beach, the fertile plains and hills and the mountains south of the resort and offer spectacular dawns and sunsets. The mountain road leads to the picturesque hamlet of Krasi with its ancient plane-trees, rushing waters and springs.
