Chania ( Xania) Area Information
Xania is the capital of the west of the island. The old Turkish mosque on the harbour has recently
been renovated, as has the Venetian lighthouse at the end of the breakwater. A labyrinth of small
streets winds around the old town with some superb restaurants and tavernas hidden in the old
courtyards.
Xania is a truly amazing experience and has much to see, including an archaeological museum, the
remains of Venetian boat repair buildings and the city is built over the ancient Minoan city of
Kydonia Nearby Souda Bay is a natural harbour which houses a NATO naval base and is the
departure point for ferries. The airport (CHQ) on the Akrotiri peninsular provides a convenient
arrival point for visitors.
One of the most famous points in the area is the Samaria Gorge, the longest gorge in Europe at
16km. It is a popular destination for visitors but be warned, it is better to go with a coach trip than to
try to do it in a hire car. When you get to the bottom the only way out is by boat to Sfakia. To get
back to your car it is a very long journey! Sfakia is a lovely town with seaside tavernas and an
interesting history.
The White Mountains dominate the area and are visible wherever you go. Rising to a height of 6500
feet, they are a spectacular backdrop to the small villages dotted around the region. Beyond Xania to
the west lies the town of Kastelli, Kissamou, leading to the Gramvousa peninsular and a wonderful
scenic road which hugs the extreme west coast of Crete. A turning near the resort town of Maleme,
takes you due south to the quiet resort of Palaeochora.
