GETTING TO CRETE Crete has two international airports, one in Heraklion the other in Chania, and three major ports, Heraklion, Chania and Rethymno. These towns are linked along the north coast by the island's main road network. The network stretches to Castelli to the west and Agios Nikolaos to the east. Plakias is situated some 30 kilometers south of Rethymno from where there is a regular daily bus service. Alternatively taxi ranks at the airports and in the larger towns should display tariffs for the journey to Plakias. GETTING TO PLAKIAS HILL For those who wish to make their own way by car you need to follow the road leaving Rethymno for Spili going inland and to the south. If you are on the main Heraklion - Chania road you will see a large green sign indicating Spili. After about 17 kilometers there is a sign to the right for Plakias and Preveli, take this turning. After 500 meters you will pass through the village of Koxare and 4 kilometers later the road follows the Kourtaliotis Gorge. At the end of this Gorge is the village Asomatos and on leaving Asomatos there is a turning to the left for Plakias. IGNORE THIS and go straight on until you reach the village of Mariou . One kilometer after the village you turn left at the junction going to Plakias and after about 400 meters on the right you will see the access road which leads to the PLAKIAS HILL Villas.
