Hello Paula,
What a nice surprise that you searched about Chania!
The island of Crete where Chania is offer you amazing blue clear beaches, authentic villages,
tasty food and wonderful landscape.
For me the best period to visit Chania is June, July, September and October.
August is really busy but if you have no other choice it is ok !
My top beaches:
1.Elafonisi, it is like paradise on earth.
2. Balos ,
3. Falassarna
4.Palaeochora
5. Sfakia - Fragkokastelo- Loutro
6.Sougia , ideal for campers
Also, Samaria Gorge for those you love hiking !
There are so many places to visit!
And all can be compiled with the Greek hospitality!
Whatever you need just send me!
