A typical, Cretan working village which has a 2 souvlaki shops, a taverna, a bakery, a mini market, a pharmacy, and a gift shop. The eastern side of the village is set on a hill with views to the White Mountains and Souda Bay. The rest of the village is in the valley, surrounded by orange and olive groves, but again with views of the White Mountains. Only 2 minutes by car to Armeni, and 5 minutes by car to Kalives and the National Highway.
