Kamisiani is a very small village by the sea with an extensive long wide sandy beach. Kamisiani holidays are for those looking for a small simple resort with little more than a general store for basic provisions, bars for a quiet coffee and a simple choice of modest tavernas and restaurants. Kamisiani is unspoilt quiet and peaceful. Holidays in Kamisiani are for couples and families who want a quiet, relatively undeveloped low-key resort with a calm beach and beach front area. Kamisiani beach is excellent for swimming and almost always uncrowded, especially in comparison with other resorts in the area like Platanias, Gerani and Agios Marina
Holiday in Kamisiani – Livelier neighbours along the coast
Kamisiani holidays can enjoy the proximity of Chania and its Old Town; an interesting picturesque neighbourhood of narrow paved lanes, flower-decked houses, tastefully renovated buildings, attractive gardens, walls, castles, churches, monasteries, ancient sites, art galleries and museums, with plenty of atmosphere until late at night. Other resorts on this part of the coast offer more beaches and something livelier. Maleme is a simple unsophisticated place with a long beach backed by green hills, olive groves and citrus plantations with mountains in the distance. Platanias is a well-known lively option.
Kamisiani – Quiet simple and peaceful
Kamisiani holiday excursions could include walking and cycling trails, the ancient Minoan palace at Knossos and the archaeological museum at Heraklion.
