Chania (Souda) - Greece

Relaxation is easy in Souda Bay, a horseshoe of pristine sand and sparkling sea, sheltered by hills.  Cobbled streets lined with colourful Venetian townhouses zigzag downward toward the harbour, which has a touch of Florence or Venice about it. Browse a mix of museums, churches and crafts en route, then walk the harbour wall to the oldest lighthouse in the world. End your day with a raki in a waterside café.
