Giannoulis Santa Marina Plaza

Aghia Marina is located a mere 8 km west of the city of Chania towards Kissamos. It was named after a small church dedicated to St. Marina. The abundance of trees combined with the sun-blessed beaches that stretch over 2.5 km on the north coast have turned Aghia Marina into one of the most popular holiday destinations in Crete. The fine golden sand that blends with the trees along the shoreline make for truly exotic surroundings.
