Spotlight: Agia Pelagia

About 18 km West of Heraclion you find the little tourist resort Agia Pelagia. Around 30 years ago a certain Mrs. Capsis came to the place and immediately saw the potential of the area.

Wonderful place

Balos / Gramvousa is a wonderful place, surely worth a visit. If you can, use the road instead of going there by ship. It is a tough path driving (you are better off with a small Jeep) and you will need to walk down the hill (and upwards after that) for about 20 minutes, bit you will be rewarded with a view you are unlike to find anywhere else on the island. Falasarna, which is not far from there is also a very nice place worth visiting (cleanest beach I have seen so far on Crete).
