From Paleochora
to Sfakia
- sea and mountains
|
|
A different way of experiencing the impressive mountains of Crete is to sail along the south coast from Paleochora to Sfakia is.
|
||
|
Every morning, the ferry - Samaria or Daskalogiannis
- leaves Paleochora for
Sougia with passengers
|
|||
|
The boats also carry the tourists to Sfakia after their walk through the Samaria gorge.
