    Holidays to Amoudara are based around family beachfront activities like swimming and building sandcastles. Watersports are also popular and there's plenty of evening entertainment in the bars, nightclubs, and traditional Greek tavernas.

    Beach

    With a name that comes from the Greek word for sand, it's no wonder that Amoudara is centred around its beach. This stretches for 1.5 kilometres and is divided into areas split by incoming streams. Some sections are quiet and restful, others have music for the more lively. There are many showers, changing rooms and lifeguards as well as bars, restaurants, and ice-cream outlets. Watersports are one of Amoudara's top activities, including anything from diving to body-boarding. Adults might like to relax in the spa, though everyone will have fun at the Bravo water park which features pools and slides.

    After dark

    Amoudara’s nightlife is geared towards families, so live music venues mix freely with friendly seafront tavernas. If you're looking for a livelier scene, Amoudara is only a little over 6 kilometres, or a 20-minute drive, from Heraklion, Crete’s biggest city. As well as high street shops, you'll also find cafés, restaurants, bars and clubs.

    Days out

    Amoudara is less than half an hour's drive from Crete’s most famous attraction, the ancient Palace of Knossos. This is the legendary home of the Minotaur, who is said to have lived in a labyrinth under the palace. You can also go horse riding or take a jeep safari into the country from Amoudara. On a visit to the nearby Almyros Gorge you'll see a 14th-century monastery and a small waterfall.
