Getting there: Located
very close
to Chania with easy access on foot, by public bus, taxi and car.
Atmosphere: There
is plenty of accommodation for tourists in Krissi Akti but they
remain fairly quiet places and are away from the coastal road (as
opposed to Stalos, Agia Marina, Platanias which have developed along
the road)
Accommodation: A lot
of the accommodation is handled by tour operators.
Restaurants: Not
many restaurants, probably because Chania is so close by.
Shopping: Limited
but Chania is nearby
Nightlife: You will
need to go to Chania.
Beach: Very
nice sandy beaches. The water is shallow so it is safe for children.
One of the beaches has a play area for children. It can get crowded,
especially at the weekend because the beaches are popular with the
inhabitants of Chania.
Additional comment : A good
base if you want to be close to town without being in it. Also excellent
if you have small children because the beaches are safer than most
beaches on the northwest coast.
