Chania - Do & See
Chania has many wonderful things to offer you on your holiday. Go on a glass-bottomed boat cruise and enjoy the wonderful sea life. If this is not thrilling enough go to Limnoupolis Water Park and feel the adrenaline rush on the waterslides. Try scuba diving or just hanging out on the beach all day. Either way you will return back home well rested.
Boat trips
Glass-bottomed boats cross in crystal waters to nearby St Theodore Island. Others sail to idyllic Stavros beach on Akrotiri Peninsula. The prices vary so do not hesitate to walk around to compare between the different companies.
Fort Firca
The calm ruins of the Venetian fort have lovely sea views. Its fascinating Naval Museum (next door) recalls Chania’s maritime tradition.
Limnoupolis Water Park
This is the kids’ choice with waterslides, pools and a lazy river. And for grown-ups there is a jacuzzi and pool bar. Shops and eateries add to the attractions.
Samaria Gorge
This famous 16 km hike down a spectacular mountain gorge reaches the south coast. You’ll need sturdy shoes, water and a hat!
Scuba Diving
There are at least two scuba diving centers in Chania - Blue Adventures Diving and Omega Divers. They are both certified and has good reputation in the scuba business. Going scuba diving will let you peek into a new world of seldom seen creatures and will let you be a part of another element for some time.
