Kalo Chorio Holiday
On the north coast of Crete 10km southeast of Agios Nikolaos and east of Heraklion, little Kalo Chorio is a complete contrast to some of its livelier neighbours: it is a peaceful, traditionally Greek resort. You come here to experience the 'real Greece'. Its hillside position means it boasts some eye-catching views along the coast.
Beaches
There are three sandy beaches within walking distance of the centre of the resort. These can get very crowded during the summer months.
Shopping
Head to nearby Aghios Nikolaos for shopping. Here you'll find many boutiques selling souvenirs and local handicrafts. The weekly market sells some delicious local produce enabling you to take a taste of Greece home with you.
Nightlife
Kalo Chorio is a quiet town used to living life at a sleepy pace. Nightlife here is therefore mellow, very easy-going and generally amounts to dinner and a drink with friends or locals in one of the tavernas.
Local Specialities
Kalo Chorio possesses a few local tavernas, most of which serve similar menus. A Greek culinary experience isn't complete without indulging in some Raki - the local drink. Soak it up with a fresh, Greek salad and local olives.
