Location

Stavros is a seaside village on the northern tip of the Akrotiri peninsula, about 17 km northeast of Chania. It is famous for the camel-shaped Vardies mountain rising above the bay, where scenes from “Zorba the Greek” were filmed in 1964 with Anthony Quinn dancing the iconic sirtaki on the beach. Stavros is now a well-serviced coastal resort with tavernas, cafés and mini-markets, while still retaining a laid-back atmosphere.

The wider Akrotiri area is known for some of Chania’s cleanest and most family-friendly sandy beaches, including Stavros, Kalathas and Tersanas. It offers a relaxed residential environment with easy access to Chania, schools, shops and the airport, as well as opportunities for walking, swimming and nature activities. The peninsula is also home to notable historic monasteries such as Agia Triada, adding cultural interest to this diverse and appealing location.
