| Beaches in Palekastro |
 Hiona or Chiona beach is located 2 km east from Palekastro village and 20 from Sitia. The main beach is 300 m long and you can enjoy the rest under the shade of the tamarisks.
The sandy sea bottom slopes gently, making swimming safe even for the youngest holidaymakers. On the southeastern side of the beach, there are many pristine and secluded, small sandy bays, ideal for families and with more privacy. The name of this beach area is 'Bodalaki'. The 3 traditional fish taverns are well-known on the whole Crete. People come here from every part of the island to taste the famous "kakavia" and "buyabesa" (traditional cretan meals with fish).
