Agios Nikolaos holidays

Agios Nikolaos is a pretty waterside resort with a good range of accommodation to suit all kinds of holidaymakers. One of the most photographed places on the island of Crete is the Agios Nikolaos port. Built around a so-called ‘bottomless’ lake, which is linked to the sea by a narrow canal, the area around the lake is full of cafés, restaurants and bars. Cultural highlights include the Folk Museum with its fascinating exhibits, the town’s namesake church and the Archaeological Museum with its artefacts of ancient Crete. For retail therapy there’s the Wednesday morning market and the local shops filled with finely crafted jewellery. The island of Spinalonga, which sits just off the coast of Agios Nikolaos, is also worth a visit. When you want to kick back and relax, take a stroll down to one of the town’s small, pebbly coves. Agios Nikolaos is the perfect holiday destination for families and couples alike.
