Location
The villages of Daratso, Galatas, Pano Stalos and Agia Marina are all located a little inland overlooking groves of olives, oranges, lemons, avocadoes and vineyards and of course the sea. Today Platanias is a cosmopolitan tourist resort with all necessary facilities not to mention the 4 km sandy beach. The Old Village, situated on top of a craggy outlook, was where the inhabitants found refuge from pirates and other invaders over the centuries. Here are many local tavernas with fantastic views over the sea and surrounding landscape. Just a few kilometers away from Platanias you find yourself in a rugged area with rare fauna and flora. Here, in the villages of Modi, Gerani, Maleme, Kontomari, Tavronitis, Kolimbari and Spilia you can find the real Cretan lifestyle and the area is perfect for a residence either as a holiday or permanent home, quiet but still very close to all facilities.
