The village of Polemarchi is only a few minutes from Tavronitis, an active traditional Cretan village with tavernas, mini-markets, a bakery, other shops and its pebbly beach. The site of the village is perfect to use as a base for various excursions to the west of Crete. Polemarchi is 20 km from the town of Chania and almost 8 km from the coastal village of Platanias.

Platanias is a picturesque village perched on the slopes of a hill, with spectacular sea views. Thanks to its very good tourist infrastructure, its sandy beach equipped with sunbeds and parasols and entertainment, it caters for all tastes.
