Few things beat a day beside the sea. Round up the crew, put together a picnic and enjoy some fresh air at Komos Beach.
You'll soon learn why this Heraklion stretch of coastline is popular with travelers. If you're looking for more to do and see here, Beach of Matala, Palace of Phaistos, and Matala Caves are in the area too. They won't take you very long to get to from Komos Beach.
