A vibrant coastal town blending modern resort
amenities with rich Cretan traditions—perfect for
travelers seeking sun-soaked beaches, lively nightlife,
and easy access to cultural attractions.
Hersonissos is located on the northern coast of Crete, about 25 km east of Heraklion. Once a modest fishing village, it has evolved into one of the island’s premier resort destinations. The town stretches along a sheltered bay with sandy beaches and a palm-lined promenade. Here, visitors enjoy water sports, organized beach clubs, and fresh seafood tavernas. Inland, the original settlement of Ano Hersonissos perches on the foothills of Mount Giouchtas, offering panoramic views, historic churches, and authentic rural charm.
