  Location

Caldera Beach is located directly on the beautiful beach of Gerani. The surrounding countryside is green all year round and is a profusion of natural beauty. The small village of Gerani has kept it’s old charm with small pensions and tavernas next door to farms and fields.
Take a stroll through the cobblestone lanes of the most impressive and atmospheric town in Crete, a crossroad of civilisations, and feel how the Minoan grandeur blends with the vivid traces of hundreds of years of Venetian and Turkish influences.
Chania old harbour 

Marvel at its Turkish mosques, its old Venetian harbour, the churchlike market hall and narrow streets packed with small shops, cafes and traditional tavernas, and discover for yourself Chania’s unique and atmospheric blend of history and local culture.

 Falassarna beach

The area is ideal if you wish to explore on your own. Rent a car or use the local buses and head off to the mountains with their delightful villages and dramatic landscapes, or visit one of the many world-famous archaeological sites. Throughout the region you will find lots of large organised beaches and small secluded coves, all with clear crystal waters.
