Sfakia: What to do when you get there?

Sfakiá (Greek: Σφακιά) is a mountainous area in the southwestern part of the island of Crete, in the Chania regional unit. It is considered to be one of the few places in Greece that have never been fully occupied by foreign powers. With a 2011 census population of 1,889 inhabitants living on a land area of 467.589 km2 (180.537 sq mi), Sfakia is one of the largest and least densely populated municipalities on the island of Crete. The etymology of its name is disputed. According to the prevailing theory, it relates to its rugged terrain, deriving from the ancient Greek word σφαξ, meaning land chasm or gorge.

Magnfique journée de kayak de mer au départ de Chora Sfakion. La côte est magnifique et ce fût un bonheur de la découvrir accompagné de nos deux guides Stélios et Yves (qui est français). Très belle excursions ponctuées de pauses snorkelling !
