Welcome to Chania, the ancient coastal town where some of the most refined restaurants and bars in Greece stop the clock for summer nights that stretch into the morning.

 

Punctuated with Greece’s most famous postcard beaches within driving distance, this hotspot has long been an alternative escape from legendary Meccas like Capri and Ibiza, attracting the affluent local and international urban crowd year-round, who are more tuned into the sophisticated lifestyle.

 

With the full-on glamour of Mykonos, less the tourist traps and Saturday night crowds, this foremost social hub on Crete has more than its fair share of reputable party spots.A haven for culture vultures, travel back in time through the Venetian Harbour ideal for romantic morning walks or atmospheric night strolls through cobblestone alleys, and markets as you soak up some culture while you get your Greek on.
