Domata Beach sits at the mouth of Klados Gorge on the wild coast between Sougia and Agia Roumeli. Its layered rock terraces give the shore its name and make the landscape the main reason to visit.

Fournoti Beach is a secluded cove west of Agia Roumeli. Pine-covered slopes, fine pebbles and an absence of roads give it a remote character that calls for more preparation than a normal beach stop.

Kalogeros Beach lies west of Agia Roumeli on a cliff-lined stretch of Sfakia. It is a destination for a carefully arranged boat outing, with little of the infrastructure found at the village beach.

Agia Roumeli Beach stretches in front of the village at the coastal exit of Samaria Gorge. It welcomes both hikers finishing the gorge and travellers who arrive by ferry simply to enjoy this roadless part of Chania.

Agios Pavlos Beach at Selouda lies east of Agia Roumeli on the remote Sfakia coast. Its small stone chapel, broad natural shoreline and mountain backdrop reward visitors who are comfortable planning a boat trip or coastal hike.

Marmara Beach is a small pebble cove at the coastal end of Aradena Gorge. The pale, sculpted rocks around the bay make it one of the most distinctive beach stops in the Loutro area.
