Seitan Limania Beach Crete is a stunning cove located on the northeastern coast of Crete, near Chania Airport. It is known for its dramatic setting and unique beauty. The beach is small, with pebbles instead of sand. The surrounding landscape, with its rugged cliffs and deep blue sea, gives the beach a wild and untouched feel. 

Its name literally translates to “Devil Port” due to the sea level’s tendency to rise slightly when ferries travel close to the beach.  This happens due to the cove’s structure as the narrow rock formations cause the water to ‘swell up’.

Reaching Seitan Limani can be challenging. A narrow, winding road leads down to the beach. The road is steep and sometimes difficult to navigate. Once at the bottom, visitors are rewarded with breathtaking views and a peaceful environment.

The beach is not very developed. There are no large hotels or restaurants, which helps preserve its natural charm. There are no sunbeds or umbrellas, so visitors need to bring their own supplies. 

Despite its remote and quiet location, Seitan Limania Beach Crete can become crowded in the summer months due its small capacity. It is a popular destination for those seeking a more adventurous and picturesque beach experience. The beach is also famous for the Kri-Kri, a local species of goat inhabiting the area.
