Fodor's Expert Review Avlaki Beach
Malia
Beach
To the north of Ayios Nikalaos in the Gulf of Malia are a string of beaches clustered around the town of Sisi. A pretty little inlet with a handful of tavernas, it is a classic Greek summer resort with little else to do but swim and eat. Avlaki and Boufos beaches, separated by a cliff, are the pick of the bunch. Amenities: food and drink. Best For: swimming; snorkeling.
