Things To Do
The beach is the centre of daytime life in Malia with water sports galore to enjoy including jet skiing, waterskiing, paragliding and parascending. Play a round of crazy golf on the seafront. Take a boat trip and explore Crete’s coastline. Walking is also particularly popular with the breathtaking Samaria Gorge within easy reach on a day trip. Three miles east of the new town you can explore the ancient Palace of Malia with its Kernos Stone. Best buys include ceramics, handicrafts and leather goods.
Food & Drink
A holiday to Malia is the perfect opportunity to sample the delights of Greek cuisine. Enjoy fresh seafood and local specialities like moussaka and meze. As well as charming tavernas, you'll find British-style pubs together with Mexican, Indian and Chinese restaurants. The island is also famous for its wines and ouzo.
In The Evening
As the sun goes down, Malia comes alive with a superb nightlife ranging from glitzy nightclubs to English-style pubs, from family-friendly venues to karaoke bars. The nightlife in Malia is mainly focussed towards the 18-30 crowd but for a quieter night out seek out a peaceful taverna amongst the twisting streets of the old town.
