Location
Lasithi, Eastern Crete, South of Vai beach
Beach Name
Maridati
My Rating Overall
3 = good beach, would choose it for swimming among other
beaches if we were in the area
Beach
Large pebbles
Sea Floor
Large pebbles and rocks making stepping difficult
Water
5 = the sea water was some the best for swimming. We would
go way out of our way to swim there again
(These are just my own unscientific observation of the water feel
and appearance)
My family and I enjoy the water when it is crystal clear, and cool
instead of warm. We don' like visible floating particles
of any kind
or algae settled
on the beach.
Clothing
Topless sunbathing is common
Access
Fair = accessible by car, poor road condition
One kilometer of dirt, rough road to reach the beach in 2003
Amenities
One Restaurant near the beach
RV / Camper Accessibility
Site suitable for free camping. Ample space
for parking on the beach vicinity.
Not sure if you can drive an RV through the narrow dirt road
Snorkeling
P = looks promising but I did not dive
Very nice rocks surround the beach so it looks like a great
snorkeling spot
