Loutro is a picturesque fishing village in the Sfakia prefecture, accessible via boat from Sfakia.Life here moves at a slow pace, fishing, chatting and swimming at the nearby beaches.
Home to the Cretan vendetta, Sfakia is where you will see tight lipped Cretans dressed in black.
At the end of an unforgettable trip, through the southern end of the White Mountains, lays the beach of Sougia, 67km south of the capital. A mix of sand and pebble, clean and deep waters, and an “unofficial” meeting point for nudists.
