Serenity in the idyllic wilderness of the South
On the southern coast of Chania, where the mountains sink sharply into the sea, you will find Hora Sfakion and Loutro. What were once fishing villages have now evolved into popular, yet quiet destinations for those seeking Crete’s authentic side. The wilderness of the landscape, the rocky slopes, and the deep blue waters of the Libyan Sea compose an enchanting landscape before your eyes.
You can reach Hora Sfakion via the road network, following an impressive serpentine road. There is no road network to Loutro; you can access the hamlet via boat from Hora Sfakion or by hiking from Anopoli of Sfakia. No matter where you set off from, you will feel that you are leaving behind daily life, burdens, and cares. This land is dominated by light and the liberating energy of isolation.
Loutro and Hora Sfakion alike are beloved destinations for amateur fishermen and sea lovers, who set off from here on their excursions to secluded beaches, such as Glyka Nera, Marmara, and Agios Pavlos — places of unpretentious beauty. In the small tavernas you can try fresh fish and flavours of southern Crete.
Loutro is located near Agia Roumeli and the mouth of Samaria Gorge, where untamed nature, the mountain, and the sea of the South meet.
Discover the South of Crete, where time flows slowly and every moment becomes an experience.
