Makry Gialos Beach

Makry Gialos Beach is a long beach located in Crete. It is known for its fine sand and shallow waters, making it particularly suitable for families with small children. The depth of the water varies, with some parts being only half a meter deep, making it a safe and enjoyable environment for kids. The beach is not overly large, but it is long, providing ample space for visitors.

The beach offers a range of amenities, including sunbeds and umbrellas. These are available at no cost if you make a purchase at the nearby restaurant. Alternatively, they can be rented for a fee. Some apartments also offer umbrellas and chairs for their guests, and these can be rented by non-guests if they are available. In addition to this, the beach has changing facilities and showers for the convenience of visitors.

There are several bars located along the beach, and in the center, visitors can enjoy a range of water activities, including jet skiing. Some parts of the beach are shaded by trees, although these areas have rocks underneath, so a chair or lounger is recommended for comfort.
