Georgioupolis Beach

Georgioupolis Beach, situated in the village of Georgioupolis on Crete’s northern coast, is a peaceful spot for those looking to enjoy the sun, sand, and sea without the crowds. This beach offers soft golden sands and calm waters, making it a great place to swim and sunbathe.

One of its attractions is the charming white chapel, Agios Nikolaos, on a small islet offshore—a lovely setting for sunset photos. The beach’s shallow waters, thanks to the Almyros River, are perfect for families.

You’ll find several tavernas and cafes nearby where you can enjoy local cuisine while taking in the beautiful views. The laid-back atmosphere adds to the beach’s appeal.

Georgioupolis Beach is also a convenient starting point for exploring other nearby attractions like Lake Kournas and the Almyros Wetlands. Whether you seek a quiet day by the sea or want to explore Crete’s natural wonders, this beach offers an authentic coastal experience.
