Menies beach

The Menies or Diktynna is located 45km northwest of Chania, on the northeastern tip of the Cape of Rodopou and the exit of the gorge Fountas.

At a distance of several kilometers there

Access to the beach is a bit tedious because you have to drive in a bad dirt road length 23 km (45) from the village Rodopou. However, the road comes close enough to the beach, but is not recommended for low cars. Also, trips performed by boats from the port of Platanias on Menies. Also, on the steep coast between Menies and Fluffy formed many beaches that are accessible mainly by boat.
