About the Beach

Sougia Beach is a remote and tranquil coastal sanctuary located on the southern coast of Crete at the exit of the beautiful Agia Irini Gorge featuring a landscape of large gray pebbles and exceptionally deep clean waters that remain cool even during the peak of summer in a relaxed and unorganized environment that has maintained its laid-back character as a haven for independent travelers and nature lovers seeking an escape from mainstream tourism where the surrounding high cliffs provide a sense of total isolation and the absence of large-scale development preserves the raw and primitive beauty of the Libyan Sea shoreline.
