Paleochora is a seaside town located on the southwest coast of Crete and at a distance of 70 km from Chania. It is built on a peninsula between two picturesque bays. It is bathed by the Libyan Sea and is rightly considered the "Nymph of the Libyan" and "Land of the Sun".

The small village of Sougia in the south-west of Crete has managed to remain unaffected by the growth of tourism in Crete. It is still a peaceful haven, with a long beach, plenty of good accommodation and excellent places to eat, all at prices below those found in most of the island. From early April to late October Sougia attracts visitors looking for a relaxing holiday away from mass-tourism. Whilst you can chose to do very little apart from lazing on the beach or enjoying the relaxed atmosphere of a few beach front cafés there are also a number of beautiful walks you can do in the region.

Magnificent area next to Chania, within walking distance. Visit the Venizelos House, the small port next to the tanneries of the area, a perfect place to enjoy a sunset. Make sure to also visit Saint Mary Magdalene Orthodox Church, a Russian church in the heart of Chalepa.
