Start your day with a traditional Greek breakfast in a local bakery and take a walk along the picture-perfect old Venetian harbor with a rich history and monuments from when the Egyptians, Venetians, and Ottoman Turks plundered Chania. You can visit the Venetian boat yards off the eastern edge of the harbor in the marina and the Neoria dockyard tavernas. We also recommend:
- The Egyptian lighthouse of Chania old port provides a grand vista of the main harbor, but it can be a bit bumpy, so visited it before dark.
- The Municipal Market of Chania, Agora, has shops selling tourist souvenirs. In addition, you can get traditional Crete products like olives and cheeses and edible souvenirs like herbs.
- The Public Garden, from the Agora's main entrance, has an elegant small mansion that serves as a cafe with white peacocks and goats. The fragrant garden has an open-air cinema, and movies are screened in their original language with Greek subtitles, but children's films are generally dubbed.
Explore the cultural side of Chania in museums, like the Archaeological Museum in the Monastery of St. Francis, which features Minoan and Roman artifacts. In addition, Chania's maritime history makes the Nautical museum fascinating.
