Beautiful beaches

Stalis sits right in the middle of an 8km string of beaches, with bars and restaurants cosying up to its wispy white sands. The calm Mediterranean waters and gently shelving shore make it one of the most popular swimming spots on the island, so make time for at least a quick dip.

Something for everyone

Families will enjoy Stalis’ relaxed vibe, safe beaches and child-friendly bars. But if you’re a party-seeker, Stalis is the perfect place to chill out by day before hitting the strip in Malia after dark. As for couples, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to romantic seafront eateries.
