Villa for sale in Apokoronas. Location Information:

Apokoronas, nestled in northeastern Chania at the foot of the White Mountains, remains one of Crete’s greenest regions. It features Lake Kournas, the island’s only freshwater lake, along with tranquil beach resorts and charming traditional villages that enhance its natural charm.

Aptera
Ancient Aptera, perched above Souda Bay, dates back to the 7th century BC and holds significant historical value. Although abandoned after a 7th-century AD earthquake, it still reveals a rich and layered historical tapestry. Here, you’ll discover Roman cisterns, a Greek temple, a 12th-century monastery, and a Turkish fortress offering breathtaking panoramic views. Moreover, you can visit Tuesday through Sunday, from 8:00 to 14:30—entry is completely free.

Kalyves, Almyrida & Plaka
Kalyves, while steadily growing, still preserves its authentic seaside charm with friendly locals and relaxed seaside tavernas. Meanwhile, just minutes away, Almyrida warmly welcomes families, thanks to its shallow beach and peaceful, inviting atmosphere. Above both villages, Plaka stands proudly, offering sweeping views of the bay and the majestic White Mountains—especially beautiful during sunset.

Georgioupolis & Lake Kournas
Once a quiet fishing village, Georgioupolis now buzzes with life and boasts a spectacular 9-kilometer sandy beach. In addition, just a short drive inland, Lake Kournas awaits—feeling like a tranquil alpine retreat, especially under cloudy skies. Notably, locals love visiting the lake for its unique character, calm waters, and serene natural beauty.

Vamos
As the capital of the district, Vamos proudly showcases authentic Cretan heritage through restored stone guesthouses and artisan craft shops. In fact, back in 1995, with strong support from the EU, locals launched several cultural initiatives that helped revive the village’s identity. Today, it stands as a symbol of tradition blended with quiet innovation.

Vrysses
Founded in 1925, Vrysses offers a peaceful riverside escape, shaded by plane trees and cooled by gently flowing water. Furthermore, the village is renowned for its rich, creamy yogurt—an irresistible treat for visitors. It also serves as a relaxing, scenic stop on the way to the rugged beauty of Sfakia.
