Drapanias is a seaside village by Kissamos city, west Crete, with some tourist development in recent years, and along the beach road (see Drapanias beach) there are a few cafes and tavernas where you can enjoy a drink or meal by the sea.
Situated 35 kilometers far from Chania, at the West, 4 kilometers before arriving to Kastelli, Drapanias is a small village 1 kilometer far from the sea. It is a beautiful village with some Ottoman constructions as the tower and the well, and two churches, the one dedicated to Jesus Christ being at the entrance of the cave “Makry Spilio” (“long cave”, in Greek).
The village is well known for its Venetian Villa Trevizan.
The municipality of Drapanias consists of the villages :Drapanias (348)Apano Drapanias (42)Kokino Metohi (57)Nopigia (71)
Villa Trevizan is a 17th Century Venetian villa in the district of Mithimna - Drapanias Kissamos and is one of 120 feudal houses of Venetian origin that are dotted around the Cretan countryside. It combined High Renaissance architecture in an advanced technical stone building.
Although it is not in its complete state (missing its roof and intermeadiate floor) it is a fine example of Cretan-Venetian architecture that has weathered the years and still remains impressive.
Located 3km out of the village of Drapanias, there are signs to the Venetian Villa. This very beautiful, crumbling structure is between the old road and the new road, outside the village proper. The picture of the villa Trevisian is used on the cover of the book by Giuseppe Gerola (an Italian historical photographer who visited Crete in 1902), on the Venetian remains of Crete.
