#Sitia, the town and its area, is the easternmost part of #Crete. The area of Sitia is well known for amazing beaches such as Vai and Kouremenos, and monuments like Toplou monastery. There are also many scenic villages worth to visit. Probably the best occasion to go to those villages is during local, #traditional, feasts (panigyria - πανηγύρια) that take place there, making your visit special.

Usually there are low prices, especially to and for Athens.
