The Area
Set on the western edge of Crete, Ikos Kissamos is a base for exploring one of the island’s most spectacular corners. Around Kissamos, some of the island’s most remarkable scenery unfolds: the turquoise waters of Balos, the sweeping sands of Falassarna and the quiet coves and olive groves of the western coast.
The area is rich in cultural heritage, from ancient sites and Byzantine churches to the Venetian architecture and harbour of Chania. Further inland, the dramatic Topolia Gorge and caves reveal a wilder side of the region, while local tavernas and family-run producers offer an authentic taste of Cretan life.
With its combination of exceptional beaches, unspoilt landscapes, historic landmarks and traditional villages, western Crete offers a distinctive perspective on the island and plenty to discover beyond the coast.
