Maridati Beach

Maridati Beach, situated on the eastern coast of Crete island, remains a tranquil and lesser-known destination. This serene and unspoiled beach is positioned to the south of Vai and in close proximity to the coastal settlement of Kouremenos, which is renowned for windsurfing activities.

The beach boasts a combination of fine sand and small pebbles, accompanied by the clarity of its waters. While it lacks organized facilities due to its secluded placement, the presence of tamarisk trees bordering the beach offers natural shade in case you forget your own umbrella.

Additionally, a small taverna and a handful of rentable rooms can be found nearby, making it convenient if you wish to stay in the vicinity.

For those inclined towards unsupervised camping, the beach provides a suitable setting.
