Chania Things to Do: 67 reviews and 135 photos

Koum Kapi (that's Turkish for the Sand Gate) is an extended sand beach on the western side of the Old Venetian Harbour, and takes 5 minutes to get there, once in Sarpidonos Street.In that point, which is always windy and wavy, finish the Venetian Walls and give way to a sandy beach.Some people like to swim there, because is close and convenient, but I would not recommend it!!!

Along the sandy beach, there many nice cafes and bars, providing the ideal setting to sip your coffee or your drink.It is the "rendez-vous" point for thousand of people from Chania and not only! Tourists ignote that place and it is a pity!

Address: KOUM KAPI Neighbourhood, CHANIA
Directions: On the western side of the Old Town of Chania.

Review Helpfulness: 2.5 out of 5 stars
