Getting there: Not
so easy: take the boat to Loutro (from Hora Sfakion, Agia Roumeli,
Sougia or Paleochora) then walk 15 minutes over the hill. You
can see the time-table here
Atmosphere: The
perfect place if you love quiet surroundings in a remote place.
Accommodation: Finix
only has two hotels owned by one family. See The
Old Phoenix
Restaurants: One
restaurant only but if you need more choice you can always walk
over the hill to Loutro.
Activities: Relaxing,
beautiful walks. You can also hire canoes.
Shopping: A
few shops in Loutro.
Nightlife: Nightlife
here consists of listening to the sound of the sea and distant
goat bells.
Beach: The
pebble beach is small with some shade from tamarisk trees. Beautiful
water.
Miscellaneous: Finix
is still one of the most peaceful spots in West Crete. It can get
a little busy (by local standards) at weekends in the summer.
