Venizelos tombs – Ag.Triada monastery – Seitan Limania beach – Marathi beach

This private tour  combines both city centre view but also a visit to one of the most beautiful beach in the Mediterranean .

One of the most popular spots offering a panoramic view of Chania are the Venizelos family tombs, a few kilometres east of the city, on the road to Akrotiri and the airport.Here, at the small church of Profitis Ilias (Prophet Elijah), are the tombs of the famous Greek statesman Eleftherios Venizelos and his son Sophocles. The tombs are set in a pretty park with  an uninterrupted view of Chania.

Driving away from Venizelo’s family tombs we will see the Monastery of Agia Triada (Holy Trinity), or Tzagarolon Monastery is located on the Akrotiri Peninsula, in Chania. The Monastery of Agia Triada Tzagarolon produces excellent wine, tsikoudia, olive oil, honey, vinegar and olive oil soap. The Monastery of Agia Triada is extremely beautiful and it is really well worth visiting 

At the end we will see the brilliant beach of Seitan Limania. Seitan Limania bay is 22 km north east of Chania town. Your initial image on reaching here from above can only be described as celestial, with sea lanes penetrating the rugged rocks of the majestic Akrotiri cliffs.To reach it, bear in mind that will need to walk downhill for about 20 minutes.

Marathi beach is located in the southeastern part of the peninsula of Akrotiri in Chania, Crete, 16 km from the city of Chania.

• A crystal-clear sea and two waveless beaches.
• The taverns and cafes by the sea, over viewing to the coasts and the mountains across the bay of Souda

It is a common secret among the locals, who try to keep it hidden from mass tourism as the coast is truly magnificent. With its crystal clear water and white sandy beach, it is certain to become your favourite.
