It’s a very popular beach location as it is locally known for its crystal-clear waters and shallow shores. It has two beautiful beaches that are divided by a small harbour and a pier with many excellent tavernas and beach bars. The beaches of Marathi are well organised with umbrellas, sunbeds and showers etc but it also has many opportunities for food and drink. These beaches have been awarded the Blue Flag status and also have lifeguards on duty making it the perfect location for families and children. The beaches also have accessibility facilities for people with disabilities to enjoy this breath-taking region of Crete.
Marathi is known for its beauty, serenity and remoteness so finding local amenities like pharmacies, mini markets or supermarkets is a necessity. Around a 10-minute drive away from your villa in the village of Pithari you will find pharmacies, coffee shops and mini markets. Closer towards the city of Chania you will find bigger named supermarkets and more branded shops for all your other essentials.

Marathi is located only 15 minutes’ drive (8km) from Chania International Airport; 30-minute drive (16km) to Chania city centre; 10-minute drive (in Pithari) from the nearest local amenities such as pharmacies, mini markets and local coffee shops; and 25-minute drive (16km) to the port of Souda.
Marathi is a well-connected beach with public transport in the summer months, connecting the beach with Chania city centre and the rest of the island. Although it is recommended to get around by car on the Akrotiri peninsular it is also possible through taxi or transfer. If you would like any assistance with this, we’d be happy to help.
Whether you’d like to go exploring by yourselves or in a chauffeured transfer, there are many activities to do on the Akrotiri peninsular as well as all over the island of Crete. There are many breath-taking beaches to see, for example; Elafonisi; Balos; Falasarna; Prevali; Paleochora; Seitan Limani; and many more. There are also hiking/exploring/cultural activities to do such as Samaria Gorge; Agia Irini Gorge; Agia Triada-Katholiko Monastery Trail; Zeus’ cave; Knossos and Heraklion city; and the E4 European Hiking Trail across the south coast of Crete.
Marathi is well connected to the rest of the island as it has 2 main roads connecting it and taking you towards the national road.
