Akrotiri, or as the ancient greeks called it, Kiamon, means the edge. Here, at the edge of Chania, you will find quaint little villages, beautiful beaches, and smiling people. It was discovered by the world in 1964, as the then world famous movie “Zorba the Greek” was filmed in it’s sandy dunes. Now, people still chose to come back to visit the historical sites and enjoy the crystal waters of it’s various beaches.
