Falassarna trip planner

The ancient harbor town of Falassarna, once an independent city-state, today represents one of Crete's quieter resorts, drawing mostly day-trippers from the nearby town of Chania. In addition to a long stretch of sandy coastline, the low-key town offers visitors access to several ancient ruins, including the remains of an acropolis and temple dedicated to the goddess Dyctynna. A pocket of tranquility on an island known for its vibrant nightlife and crowded beaches, Falassarna clings to its age-old way of life, seemingly unchanged by the passage of time. If you prefer livelier places on your itinerary, use Falassarna as a day base and spend your evenings in Kissamos or Chania.
