Drapanos

DRAPANOS

Drapanos is a small village with traditional tavernas, Kafeneon and a quaint local church.

The village now has a small shop which stocks basic items and eggs straight from the owner’s hens!   There are more amenities in Plaka village, which is only about an 8-minute drive away.  Located at the edge of a plateau at about 700 feet in altitude on the Apokoronou Peninsula, the views from Drapanos are splendid - both to the White Mountains to the south and Souda Bay to the north. The sandy beach at Almerida is only 15 minutes drive, and a short distance further is the coastal town of Kalives, which offers good shopping and amenities for day-to-day living.
