This very cosmopolitan seaside town has a bustling atmosphere attractive to locals and tourists alike. With its lake (said to be bottomless) and its busy harbour, there is no shortage of waterfront bars, restaurant and tavernas. Shopping opportunities are plentiful too with a range of well-stocked trendy boutiques and the usual variety of souvenir shops. Local transport is good when you feel like visiting other parts of the island, including Heraklion, 69km away.
