About Kalo Chorio- Crete
On the north coast of Crete 10km southeast of Aghios 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.
In Greek Kalo Chorio means 'Good Village', which is an apt name considering the beauty of the surrounding area. The village nestles in a green, hilly landscape falling away to miles of pristine (blue flag) beaches and the crystal-clear sea. The nearest major centre, Agios Nikolaos, is 12 km away but everything you need can be found in Kalo Chorio's shops, markets, tavernas, restaurants and kafenions. Watersports, particularly windsurfing, hiking and cycling are popular pursuits for visitors

Kalo Chorio Quick Info
There are three sandy beaches within walking distance of the centre of the resort. These can get very crowded during the summer months. 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. 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. 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. For an exciting day away from the beach, take a relaxing boat trip to the island of Spinalonga, now deserted, which used to be a leper colony, and has an interesting Venetian Fortress. There are numerous other islands to visit, enabling you to discover your own little haven of peace..
