TO SEE
A visit to Panormo offers a variety of beach activities, with two main sandy beaches, Limanaki and Limni, both ideal for families and couples. The shallow, calm waters are perfect for swimming, especially for children, and the beaches are well-equipped with sunbeds, umbrellas, and water sports. For a more local experience, explore the harbor beach, where small boats tie up, offering a more unorganized but serene setting. Stroll through Panormo’s quaint streets, browse traditional shops, or stop at one of the many charming cafes for a coffee or light meal before heading to the beach.
TO DO
Panormo offers more than just beachside relaxation. Explore the village’s historical charm with its small churches and traditional architecture, or venture to one of the many excellent tavernas overlooking the harbor, where you can savor authentic Cretan dishes made from fresh, local ingredients. The beautiful coastal views create the perfect backdrop for a meal or evening drink.
