Chania Harbor


Chania is one of my favorite towns. Of course I’m talking about Old Chania, the part built by the Venetians, and loved by the tourists ever since.

It has a dainty little harbor, complete with close-in lighthouse, and it is surrounded by seafood eateries.






Old churches and mosques are on the banks of the bay, in with the restaurants, and minarets rise farther back above the city.





Fishermen can usually be found at the water’s edge, and there are always tourists at the lighthouse.








And see if you can possibly find a better place to watch the sun go down than at one of the fine restaurants on the harbor in Chania Bay.
