Agia Pelagia Holidays

Agia Pelagia at a glance

There is no doubt that Agia Pelagia holidays are the perfect getaway for anyone who wants to spend time resting and relaxing. Agia Pelagia is a small fishing village, built on a pretty bay, located just over 20 kilometres north of Heraklion, the capital of Crete – an island of Greece. It is a quiet spot and has only recently been seeing development as the tourists are pouring in. No crazy parties in this village!

For those who enjoy a quiet holiday with as little disturbance as possible this place should be at the top of the list. The town is not packed with night clubs and bars so the tourists will not have to worry about stumbling across crazy partygoers. Instead Agia Pelagia has a decent number of good tavernas and cafés best suited for the easy side of life.

Beach life for the resting
It is the serene beach and calm ocean that attracts most of the people who go on Agia Pelagia holidays. The amphitheatre shape of the bay protects it from the north winds that create big waves along the coast of Crete yet late at night, once the activity has died down, the gentle purl of the ocean is easy to hear.

Quiet and small but well apportioned
More recently people have had the opportunity of enjoying a now far larger resort with a wide range of accommodation options. Holidays in Agia Pelagia offer a choice of numerous quality hotels fitting every budget. Holidaymakers can also choose to stay in a self-catering apartment for a more private and intimate experience.
