Bargain Holidays in Sissi
|
On the eastern coast of Crete lies the small picturesque fishing village of Sissi. Set just 45 kilometres from Heraklion, you’ll find a tranquil atmosphere, pretty harbour, traditional fishing boats and charming tavernas. Sissi is not renowned for its beautiful beaches, but there are two small, sandy beaches, (Boufos and Avlaki) to the east of the village. Bronze on the beaches, soak up the relaxed atmosphere, and enjoy drinks and snacks at the series of little cafes and tavernas, which are scattered along the beachfront.
