Milatos is located on the north coast of Crete to the east of Sissi and fifty kilometres from the airport and the
capital Heraklion. Milatos itself lies one kilometre from the beach and harbour. It is a very quiet resort, a perfect respite from the bustle of twenty first century life. Milatos offers a relaxing break in a sleepy little resort that retains its traditional charm. It has a small fishing harbour which is where you will find some tasty fish restaurants.
Although the coastline here is fairly rocky and a good place to snorkel and dive, there are two small beaches one of sand and the other of shingle. Best time to visit Milatos is in the summer. The season extends from April - October when the temperature range is from 25-38 degrees. There are two small beaches near to the harbour, while one kilometre from Milatos centre there is a sandy beach. Care must be taken when the wind is from the east as the waves can become quite heavy. The waters around this coastal area are crystal clear & are ideal for snorkelling.
