What to see in Malia
Must-sees
Malia is one of the big beach resorts on Crete’s north coast, with a long sandy beach and shallow water. East of the town are the ruins of the Minoan palace of Malia, smaller and quieter than Knossos and unreconstructed.
The old village, around the church of Agios Dimitrios, has tavernas and quiet lanes, while the beach road is where the parties are. The Lasithi Plateau, the Cave of Zeus and Agios Nikolaos are nearby.
Free tours and guided visits
