Agios Onoufrios beach

Nestled in a protected bay, Agios Onoufrios Beach is a peaceful haven just 8 km north of Chania, close to the charming village of Kounoupidiana. This small yet picturesque beach offers a relaxing atmosphere, ideal for those seeking a quiet escape. With umbrellas and loungers available for rent, as well as a small canteen offering essential snacks and refreshments, Agios Onoufrios Beach ensures a comfortable visit.

Named after the nearby Byzantine church of Agios Onoufrios, which celebrates its feast day every June 12th, the beach is a popular spot for locals. A quaint fishing port borders the beach, offering benches and shade under the trees for a tranquil spot to relax.

Agios Onoufrios Beach is well-equipped for visitors, featuring traditional taverns, showers, changing cabins, and ample parking. A lifeguard is also on duty to ensure safety. While the beach is accessible by private car and motorbike, it’s worth noting that fuel tanks are located on the left side of the beach. Despite this, the crystal-clear waters and serene atmosphere make it an excellent choice for a peaceful day by the sea. Agios Onoufrios Beach has also been awarded the prestigious Blue Flag multiple times for its cleanliness and environmental standards.

Whether you’re looking to relax on the sand, enjoy a fresh seafood meal, or explore the scenic surroundings, Agios Onoufrios Beach offers the perfect blend of relaxation and local charm.
