Chora Sfakion: The Seaside Gateway to Southern Crete

History, hospitality and views of the Libyan Sea

Chora Sfakion is the administrative and transport centre of the area. The seaside settlement retains an authentic character and is the departure point for boats to Loutro, Agia Roumeli, Sougia and Paleochora.

Walk around the harbour, seek viewpoints above the village and discover a place closely linked to Cretan history. Its tavernas and small cafés are ideal for a peaceful stop by the sea.
