Seitan Limania Beach - (Satan's Harbours) - Stefanou Beach, Akrotiri Peninsula, Chania Crete
One of Crete's amazing beaches and hidden gems - a true secret beach (named Stefanou Beach) located not too far from the hustle and bustle of Chania in an area called Seitan Limania (Satan's Harbours) - undoubtedly named for the treacherous mountain road and rock paths you must navigate to arrive at this gem of a beach. Come prepared when visiting Stefanou Beach, after parking your vehicle, it's a pretty rocky path going down to the beach itself. Expect about a 10-15 minute walk and flip flops most likely won't cut it. Well worth the trip though - the water is excellent and there's a couple of places to rock jump or dive. Sand can be tough to come by on those busy summer afternoons, as the beach fills up quick with limited overflow area! Enjoy.

Seitan Limania beach, Best of Crete 4K | Παραλία Σεϊτάν Λιμάνια, Ακρωτήρι Χανιά
Seitan Limania beach is located in the northeast of Akrotiri, east of Crete, 20 km from Chania city. Seawater canals shape small coves in the coasts of Akrotiri. In one of these coves is the beach “Seitan Limania”. When you visit this beach, you will be immediately impressed by the view as it is totally different from all the others.
The word “Seitan” is Turkish and it has remained from the period of the Turkish conquest in Crete. It is translated as “satanic”, so Seitan Limania means the “Ports of Satan”. Despite its name, the beach is rather heavenly. The beach has gravel and sand, blue crystal waters and is surrounded by huge rocks. These rocks are suitable for diving and protect the cove from bad weather. This heavenly small beach is more known to the locals of Hordaki who try to keep it clean and protected from mass tourism. It is also worth to visit the small, old church of Agios Stefanos (Saint Stefan), which is carved into the rocks.
In order to reach the beach, you go towards the airport of Chania. After turning towards the airport, you continue to the village Hordaki. At the entrance of the village, you turn right and just before the uphill which leads to the mountain “Skloka”, you turn right again to the church of Saint Rafael. After the church, you follow a twisty downhill leading over the beach, where you can park. Then you go down the path on foot and you reach the charming beach of Seitan Limania. The path is not easily accessible, so it would be helpful if you wear sports shoes. Additionally, there is nothing close to the beach so you must be prepared and have with you at least the basics. You can also reach to Seitan Limania by boat.
Seitan Limania beach is not yet an organized beach and it still keeps its natural character although even more people visit it every year. So, if you get to Chania be sure to visit Seitan Limania and it will seem to you as a small heaven on earth.
To get to Seitan Limania, you have to follow the road to the airport of Chania and then towards the village of Chordaki. Reaching the village you will turn right and after passing the branch leading to the summit of Mount Skloka, will continue to the chapel of St. Raphael . Passing by the chapel of St. Raphael, the downhill road will lead you over the beach, where you will park. Climb down the path and you are at the beautiful beach of Seitan Limania.

Seitan Limania Beach - Private Paradise in Greece
Looking for a private paradise in Greece? The gorgeous Seitan Limania beach in off-season is EMPTY! Watch this video and see what a typical tourist Greece beach looks like with only 5 people there: paradise.
We rented a car in Chania, Crete to go visit one of the most famous Greece beaches. Seitan Limania beach is a world famous beach that is nestled in between two huge cliffs and the only way to access the sandy shore is to hike down a pretty steep mountain. Not for the faint of heart! Sometimes referred to as one of the best beaches in Crete, we would have to agree... but only in off-peak season! Usually, this tiny beach is filled to the brim with umbrellas, beach towels and sweaty, speedo wearing men lathered up in white sun screen (no thanks?). In November, we arrived to the beach to find only 5 people there, and it stayed that way throughout the entire day.
Greece is a well known travel destination for good reason, it has some amazing beaches, great food and Greece travel is relatively affordable based on other European countries. If you come to Chania looking for some amazing Crete beaches, don't miss Seitan Limania. It's an unforgettable experience and you'll have a great day hiking to and from the private paradise.
If you're interested in seeing more of the Chania Crete beaches, go watch our last video all about Elafonisi beach - otherwise known as the pink sand beach.

SEITAN LIMANIA BEACH CHANIA CRETE GREEECE
Seitan limania are located 20 kilometers north east of Chania and 150 kilometers west of Heraklion on Akrotiri few kilometers after the Airport Daskalogiannis
Seitan limania beach is a small beach but extreme beautiful is a line of sea coming inside the ground meeting the end of a small gorge that is coming from the mountains creating this nice beach with white sand and this beatiful color waters.
when you reach there,there is a parking you can park your vehicle free of charge and then to walk one of the two paths to go down to the beach.
ATTENTION! there are 2 paths to walk down the beach no one is easy make sure you have SHOES with you becouse with flip flops will be impossible or too DANGEROUS. For the first path you need to walk few meters oposite direction of the beach and then start the path is a bit longer but less vertical so it s better if you have stuff to carry or children in your company the other one is shorter but more vertical and it s start straight down from the parking.
In high season might be somebody there selling water and refreshments but it s possible that wont be too so make sure that you have what you need already with you and of course no sunbeds or umbrellas so make sure you bring your shadow with you too.
Becouse the beach is in gorge phone signal and internet signal are very low or dont exist.
Seitan limania is not an easy beach to visit but at the end of the day definately worth it, you just need to be very carefull and enjoy your holidays!!!

Loutraki used to be a well kept secret, but now houses a resort. Stefanou beach is my favorite of them on the Akrotiri, having to navigate those hairpin turns down a cliff before cliff-hiking the rest of the way down to the waterfront. Marathi, Kalathas, Stavros - all a good time.
Definitely some of Crete's best beaches to enjoy, especially along the northern coast.
Enjoy the sun, enjoy the fun, enjoy the action, and remember:

Kreta Crete Seitan Limania Beach - raj na ziemi!
Drugi dzień naszych wakacji na Krecie :)
Spędzamy czas na przepięknej plaży Seitan Limania.
Plaża ta znajduje się 22 km na północny wschód od Chani.
Dojazd do dzikiego parkingu plaży prowadzi stromymi serpentynami przez kilka kilometrów. Po zaparkowaniu czeka nas ok.15 minutowa nie łatwa wędrówka stromymi zboczami na plaże (warto pokonać ją w sportowych butach).
Jednak widoki jakie ujrzymy wynagrodzą nam wszystko :D
Serdecznie zapraszam do podróży razem z nami :D

Seitan Limania, Crete, Greece | Life in POV
Seitan Limania or Stefanos is a tiny fantastic beach with deep azure waters. The beach has fine pebbles and sand, transferred there from the nearby quarry through the canyon Diplohahalo. On the right and the left sides of the cove, huge marble rocks are standing high to protect the beach from the bad weather.
The fame of the beach has faced a rapid increase since 2010 because of Social media. The beach is quite crowded during peak season. There is a narrow steep path starting from the parking place and leading to the beach, so make sure you wear sneakers.
