TSIVARAS

A fabulous village with the perfect location! Still typically Cretan, with a quaint upper village of narrow streets, with either white washed or stone houses, a kafenio which is also a mini market and the delivery point for the post. Tsivaras is only 2 kms from the coast and has gorgeous views of Souda Bay to the north, the White Mountains to the south, verdant valleys looking west to the Turkish fort at Aptera, or east to Gavalohori and the Drapanos peninsula. Set on the main road between Kalives (2kms) and Vamos (4kms), and with many back tracks that lead to the National Highway (in 3 minutes), Kera Beach (in 3 minutes) and Almyrida (in 5 minutes). This village also has many different walking trails, including a tiny gorge to the east of the village. A lovely peaceful village with great views, yet so close to the many amenities in Kalives, Almyrida and Vamos.
