Aghia Marina
is a village in the eastern half of the bay of
Hania
on the island of
Crete.
It lies some 8 kms West of the city on a small peninsula, just opposite to Thodorou island.
The bigger hotel sites of the region concentrate here and in the neighbouring village of Platanias (1,500 meters).

The are followed by wide ranging gastronomic, sports and leisure facilities, and of course the whole bandwidth of Mediterranean watersports.
At Aghia Marina, things however run more leisurely than in the neighbouring village.
Mainly at nighttime, as the number of restaurants and bars located here is far less.
|
| |
There are only a few bigger hotel resorts, but in exchange there are many friendly private hotels and apartment facilities.
By the main road there are tavernas, supermarkets, car rentals, bistros and ATM machines.
The shops and restaurants on the scene are prepared for the demands of individual tourism.

The beach of Aghia Marina is similar to the one of the neighbouring village, but during the season less crowded.
The major watersport facilities concentrate at Platanias as well.
