    Conference Excursion 
    (2 options)

    Excursion 1: Falassarna Beach

    Falassarna is a beautiful, well-known beach in Crete. Its crystal turquoise and greenish waters and white and sand compose a picturesque landscape and create an overall magical experience. It is located at Gramvoussa,15 km from Kissamos, and its coastline is 3 km long. It is separated into 5 beaches, divided by rocks or dunes, with two out of the five gathering the largest crowds. Additionally, the many different parts of the coast have been given various names by the locals, such as Bourouni, Kalami and Agia Paraskevi.

    Excursion 2: Archaeological Museum and Chania Town

    Monastery of Agia Triada

    We start with a visit to the Monastery of Agia Triada, a Greek Orthodox monastery in the Akrotiri peninsula in the Chania regional unit, Crete, Greece. It also contains a museum. The monastery, whose name means “Holy Trinity”, was built in the 17th century by two brothers of the Venetian Zangaroli family on the site of a pre-existing church.

    Tombs of Venizelos

    After that we are going to visit the well-known Tombs of Venizelos Family. The tombs of Eleftherios Venizelos, one of the greatest personalities in the History of modern Greece, and the tomb of his son, Sofoklis, are located in this historical place. Last but not least, the spectacular view of the city is an additional reason for visiting this site.

    Archaeological Museum of Chania

    Chania has been inhabited since neolithic times. It has been continuously inhabited for more than 5500 years, making it one of the oldest cities in Europe.

    We close this nice tour with a visit to the Archaeological Museum of Chania which opened its doors to the public on 16 April 2022 at its new premises in the suburb of Chalepa, the second most historic part of Chania after the Venetian Old Town.
