Within Crete's Mirabello Bay lies the charming town of Agios Nikolaos — a mix of cosmopolitan luxury, ancient ruins, and intriguing mythology. The picturesque inner harbor of Voulismeni (legend has it the lake is bottomless and was once where the goddess Athena bathed) paints a quaint scene with colorful bobbing boats, tavernas, cafes, and bars.
Savor the fresh catch of the day at a local eatery, then share a bottle of Cretan raki (Tsikoudia) with new friends — a traditional ritual representing hospitality, communication, and friendship.
