Chania, Crete · Escape
📍 75km + ferry from Chania
A tiny white village accessible only by foot or ferry. No cars, no road. A horseshoe bay ringed by white houses, small pebble coves, and very little else. One of the quietest places in Greece.
🔎 Local Tip
Stay overnight. Loutro is completely different after the day-trippers leave.
