Neighbourhood information

Paleokastro, or Paliokastro, is a picturesque seaside settlement in the municipality of Malevizi, just 8 km from the city of Heraklion, uniquely combining natural beauty, history and relaxation. It is an ideal destination for those who want to enjoy the quiet side of the Cretan Sea, away from the hustle and bustle of the crowded beaches. In the heart of the settlement stands the imposing Venetian fortress of Paleokastro, which was built during the Venetian rule, probably on the ancient acropolis of the city of Kytaion. The beach of the settlement, with its pebbles and deep rocky bottom, is ideal for calm dives, while its protection from the north winds makes swimming there enjoyable even on days with strong winds. On the eastern side of the beach, we find the remains of the Venetian lime kiln, which has been restored and is an important example of the industrial activity of the era. An important attraction of the area is the gorge of Paleokastro, where the church of Kera Spiliotissa is located, offering a beautiful route through nature.
