Great little beach that has two cafe bars and a nice seafood taverna near it. Besides that, there are 2-3 little shops for water, slippers, towels and other necessities. You can rent two sunbdes and an umbrella (as a package only) with 10 Euros per day and you are given a receipt so you can leave your towel on so you can come back later and return to it without worries. There are portions with clear sand but also with small rocks. There are rocks in the water but you can manage even without water slippers. The water is very clean and beautifully colored, usually very peaceful with no waves so you can go for a swim, a float or try the water sports on offer from the guys nearby. It is in between two hills where there are a few great hotels and it is also accessible by car. It is quite peaceful and there are beautiful views and some nice walks can be done around it as well.

Absolutely love this beach, it’s small and not so many sunbeds but when you get one they are comfortable and reasonably cheap we paid €10 for two beds and an umbrella. The beach it’s narrow enough and once in the water the floor of the sea is solid rock which can be a little slippery, but once you know that and act accordingly it’s a joy.. once by the rock bed the floor falls away and you enter deep water, deep beautifully clear and super buoyant water.. it’s such a great place to enjoy a swim, especially very early in the morning. I swam here two ironing just after sunrise and it was one of the great highlights of my stay in Crete. Exceptional place..

Sono ospite del Peninsula beach Resort e oggi avevo deciso di trascorrere la giornata con la mia famiglia nella bella spiaggia pubblica di Mononaftis. Avendo già appurato nei giorni precedenti che gli ombrelloni si esauriscono sin dalle prime ore del mattino, mi sono svegliato di buon ora e sono andato in spiaggia per prenotare due ombrelloni. Non avendo trovato nessuno in loco per poter pagare e dopo aver atteso più di un quarto d’ora ho lasciato i miei teli da mare sui lettini, al pari di quanto avevano fatto anche altre persone prima di me. Decido così di rientrare in hotel per fare colazione e una doccia e, subito dopo, mi reco nuovamente alla spiaggia con la famiglia dove ho trovato l’amara sorpresa: i lettini erano tutti occupati e i teli da mare buttati in spiaggia o, addirittura, utilizzati per poggiare i piedi. Anche a quell’ora, incredibilmente, non vi era nessuno con cui poter parlare e fare valere le mie ragioni. Ma non è tutto: sotto uno dei due ombrelloni si erano comodamente stese due “signore” ITALIANE, che definire CAFONE sarebbe un eufemismo. Anziché scusarsi, pretendevano di avere anche ragione perché c’erano solo i teli da mare e non c’era nessuno quindi, a loro dire, gli ombrelloni erano liberi come avrebbe detto anche il tipo (che appare e scompare a suo piacimento) cui avrebbero pagato per il nostro posto faticosamente occupato al mattino presto. Che dire dunque? Spiaggia altamente SCONSIGLIATA dove regna l’anarchia e la maleducazione. Un vero peccato perché il posto è bello. Per quanto riguarda le “signore” rappresentano la VERGOGNA DELL’ITALIA!

We had a great time at this beach. It’s rocky, not sandy but at the time of our visit the sea was warm so we spent most of our time in the water. It is very crowded with wooded sun loungers that you can rent for the day but it wasn’t obvious where you rent them from. On our second visit we needed some shade and ended up buying a parasol from the supermarket. There is a supermarket at either end of the beach, check both out before purchasing to make sure you get the best deal! There are also a few small shops selling beachwear. If you want to go diving visit ‘Stay Wet’. Another place rents boats, SUP and kayaks. There are three restaurants to choose from, all with...
