Whether you're dipping a toe in the water or just kicking back on the shoreline, Stavros Beach is a lovely place to spend time with the family. Why not bring a picnic and a rug and make a day of it?

This stretch of coastline is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Akrotiri. But Stavros Beach isn't the only drawcard in the area. Seitan Limania Beach, Chania Archaeological Museum, and Kalathas Beach are some other worthwhile attractions close by.
