Hersonissos is a north Crete seaside resort with beaches, a busy waterfront and the small bays of Limanakia. Come for an easy coastal day rather than a secluded village atmosphere.

Why go

Limanakia’s smaller bays offer a different shoreline from the main seafront, so the two are worth comparing before settling in. The resort also has a visible nightlife and beach bar scene. Its present harbour area sits over an ancient seaport, adding context to a walk along the water.

What to look for

  • The small bays of Limanakia
  • The seafront and beach scene
  • The harbour area associated with ancient Chersonesos

Useful to know

  • Compare the Limanakia bays with the main waterfront before choosing where to spend beach time.
  • Keep the resort’s nightlife character in mind when choosing a quiet or busy part of the coast.
