ABOUT

Gournes Beach features small, sandy coves that are susceptible to winds, prompting the construction of breakwaters for protection.

In addition to its beautiful sea, Gournes Beach is also home to the most modern aquarium in Greece and the largest aquarium in southern Europe, known as Thalassokosmos or CretAquarium. This impressive aquarium is situated within the premises of the former American base.

It is suitable for both couples and families to enjoy.
