A traditional village 18 kilometres south of Heraklion city on the road to Messara-Mires, prefecture of Heraklion. It is vibrant all the year round and is very attractive with 3 kafenions, primary school, 2 mini markets, florist, butcher, bars and tavernas.
Set above the road it has winding streets. Only a couple of minutes drive from Venerato with clothes shops, DIY, 3 petrol stations, bank, P.O. laundry, flower shops etc. Presently a new road is being built nearby, but not close enough to involve noise, however this road will make this charming village very accessible to both the north and south coasts and will cut down the time for reaching both.
