Sougia has been popular as a holiday destination for well over two
decades but it has managed to remain a small and quiet village.
Getting there: 75
km from Chania on a scenic winding road. One or two buses a day depending
on the time of the year.
Atmosphere: Very
laid back and relaxing place.
Accommodation: Plenty
of good accommodation but it can get full up at times (high season
and weekends) so just turning up and looking for a room is not always
a good idea.

Restaurants: Several very good
restaurants.
Shopping: Minimal
but it will cover basic needs.
Activities: Some very
good walks are possible in the area.
Nightlife: A couple
of bars and a discotheque (only in summer) on the outside of the
village.
Beach: Sougia
has a
long beach (long enough that it never feels crowded even in high
season) which varies between coarse and very fine pebbles. About
one third of the beach is clothing optional. One of the few beaches
in West Crete still without sun beds and umbrellas.
