Damnoni Beach is a large stretch of sand with a two tavernas and a cantina. The middle of Damnoni beach is now dominated by "Hapimag" a large timeshare complex aimed at German tourists (a developments which is signposted for several miles around), and the Damnoni Beach Hotel behind it. There is a large area of sun umbrellas and parasols. The derelict "Minoan Prince Hotel" stands over the eastern end. From the east of Plakias beach it is possible to follow a path to Damnoni (about half an hour's walk) - the path starts behind the Plakias Bay hotel (this is the roughest part) and is waymarked by red spots and arrows on stones (see the hiking photos below).
See the photos from the Naturalist club of Heraklion (www.fysi.gr) from the Lefkogia - Plakias area. The walk started from Lefkogia: Lefkogia - Schinaria Beach - Ammoudi Beach - Klisidi Beach - Damnoni Beach - Plakias Village
