Chersonissos is Crete's party capital and at the same time a family paradise - a combination that sounds contradictory at first glance, but works perfectly thanks to the smart layout of the town. The lively coastal town on the north coast of Crete, about 25 kilometers east of Heraklion, offers everything that makes for a perfect beach holiday: miles of beaches, crystal-clear water, a vibrant nightlife, and numerous attractions for the whole family.
The main street of Chersonissos transforms into a bustling party mile after dark, with clubs, bars, and open-air discos that stay open until the early morning hours. German, British, and Scandinavian holidaymakers celebrate exuberant summer nights here together. However, those seeking peace during the day can find it at the numerous beaches: The small bay of Limanakia with its turquoise water is a snorkeling paradise, Stalis beach offers wide sand for families, and Star Beach combines swimming fun with water slides and pools.
For families, the Acqua Plus Waterpark is an absolute highlight - one of the best water parks in Greece with slides for all ages. The Cretaquarium showcases the fascinating underwater world of the Mediterranean, and the Lychnostatis Open-Air Museum vividly conveys Cretan folk culture. Those wanting to escape the hustle and bustle can find authentic Crete with panoramic views of the coast in the nearby mountain villages of Koutouloufari and Piskopiano.
From Germany, Chersonissos is reachable in just 20 minutes transfer time thanks to its proximity to Heraklion Airport - one of the fastest transfers of all Greek holiday destinations.
