Plaka is a picturesque Cretan village just above the sandy beaches of Almyrida. Its centre is the village square (platia), where there are several good tavernas and cafés and the village has a traditional atmosphere. The view over the bay and the valley to the White Mountains is breathtaking. It has a few mini markets and shops.

The small fishing village of Almyrida is now a charming seaside resort. As you approach from the western end of the village, you will see an early fifth-century basilica with a wonderful mosaic floor. Almyrida has a beautiful, bay-shaped harbour that keeps the beach sheltered and safe, making it an ideal place for young families. It also benefits from a gently sloping sandy beach that provides access to the clear blue sea. Along the entire beach promenade are mostly family-run taverns and cafés where you can enjoy the great local cuisine and scenery. There is a taxi rank, ATMs, a bakery, clothes shops, mini markets and a pharmacy. There is a water sports centre where you can hire windsurf boards, kayaks and catamarans and learn how to use them. There is also a PADI-certified diving centre. For mini adventures, there is a two-hour boat trip that takes you from the harbour along the coastline to beautiful snorkelling spots. Off the bay lies the small island of Karga, which is a nature reserve for many species of birds. Plaka is about half an hour's drive from Chania Airport and an hour from Heraklion Airport.
