Almyrida is a seaside town in the region of Apokoronas that is a favorite for both locals and tourists alike. The small settlement is half an hour to 40 minutes east of the city of Chania. It is a scenic coastal resort built on a strip of sandy beach that is lined with cute small taverns, beach bars and cafes. The whole village is packed with all sorts of hotels, tourist accommodations and holiday homes and is also packed with all sort of amenities like grocery stores, markets, banks, car rentals etc.
Recently the settlement has expanded upwards on the slope overlooking the beautiful beach. In the summer Almyrida serves as one of the administrative centers of the area of Apokoronas. It is overall a great place for both vacations and main residence, which also makes it an ideal area for investment.
