About the area

Lasithi, located on the eastern part of the island of Crete in Greece, is a region that offers a unique blend of breathtaking landscapes, ancient history, and serene beaches. It is a place where the past and present coexist, providing a rich tapestry of experiences for travelers. One of the most iconic attractions in Lasithi is the Lasithi Plateau, a stunning expanse of fertile land surrounded by the Dikti mountain range. The plateau is dotted with traditional windmills, many of which have been restored, offering a picturesque scene that harks back to a bygone era. Visitors can explore the many charming villages around the plateau, each with its own character and traditions. The Cave of Zeus, also known as Dikteon Andron, is a must-visit for mythology enthusiasts. According to legend, this is the birthplace of Zeus, the king of the Greek gods. The cave is not only significant for its mythological connections but also for its impressive stalactites and stalagmites. For those interested in archaeology and ancient civilizations, the Minoan palace of Zakros is an intriguing site. Located on the eastern coast, this lesser-known palace provides insight into the Minoan culture without the crowds found at more famous sites like Knossos. Lasithi's coastline is adorned with numerous beaches, ranging from popular resorts to secluded coves. Vai Beach, famous for its palm forest – the largest in Europe – offers a unique tropical backdrop to its crystal-clear waters. Meanwhile, beaches like Agios Nikolaos and Elounda boast vibrant waterfronts with a variety of dining and shopping options. The region is also known for its exquisite Cretan cuisine, which visitors can savor in the many tavernas and restaurants. Local dishes made with fresh, locally-sourced ingredients include dakos, moussaka, and a variety of seafood delicacies, all accompanied by the renowned Cretan olive oil and fine local wines. For a touch of luxury and relaxation, the resort town of Elounda provides high-end accommodation and services, including spas and golf courses, with stunning views of the Mirabello Bay and the historic Spinalonga Island, a former leper colony and now a poignant historical monument. In essence, Lasithi is a destination that offers something for everyone – from the allure of ancient myths and civilizations to the tranquility of its beaches and the warmth of its people. It's a place where the beauty of Crete can be experienced in all its diversity.
