Located on the biggest Greek island, Sissi lets you experience Crete without the large crowds. This traditional fishing village is celebrated for its laid-back feel with a harbour filled with lit-up tavernas come evening and a centrally located beach taking care of days in the sun. Families particularly favour this spot for its wave-breaker waters, which ensure risk-free swimming.

Not succumbing to mass tourism, it’s the kind of place where you’ll be woken up by the sound of birds and farm animals. Encouraging holidaymakers to spend quality time with your family or romantic nights with your other half, you’ll soon get used to its unhurried pace. From its mouth-watering menus to its surrounding coves and hilltop walks – Sissi steals the hearts of all those who visit. What’s more, you’re not completely secluded either, the entertainment hotspots Hersonissos and Malia are nearby when you want to spice up your holiday itinerary.
