On the coastal road, you can stop off at the Lychnostatis open-air museum, the Παλαιοχριστιανική Βασιλική Καστρίου historical landmark, as well as wherever, takes your fancy along the beach. The warm air coursing around you, with that freedom you get on a motorbike in such as beautiful landscape, is second to none. When you get to Heraklion, there are so many things to take advantage of.
Why not see The Palace of Knossos, which roots date back as far as 2000BC, the Koules Fortress dating back to the 16th Century, and the Natural History Museum of Crete. Stalidas' close proximity to the capital makes it all that more appealing.
