What to expect
Bakery Orfanoudakis
Nestled up the mountain from Loutro, Bakery Orfanoudakis feels like stepping into a peaceful haven. The air is filled with delightful scents of cardamom and cinnamon, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. The manager greets you warmly and offers freshly baked biscuits and traditional Sfakianes pites with honey, both delicious treats that speak of local flavors. As we indulge in these delights, we'll also enjoy an energizing local breakfast to fuel us for the rest of our journey.
The deepest gorge in Chania prefecture is the gorge of Aradena. The 138-meter-deep gorge is ideal not only for sightseeing or hiking but also for bungee jumping. Trekking inside the canyon to the majestic Marmara beach is an unforgettable experience for those who attempt the descent. Aradena is one of the most interesting and longest gorges (15 km) in the region. The old Sfakians called it Faragas (Huge gorge) due to its size, distinguishing it from the other gorges of Sfakia. This characterization was later mistakenly applied to the Samaria Gorge. The gorge actually starts from the root of the peak Thodoris of the White Mountains, specifically from the underground stream of cave Drakolakki. However, most people think it is only 7 km long because the easiest access is from Aradena village, located at the middle of the gorge. For your safety and peace of mind, a hike guide is included to ensure a protected and enjoyable experience.
Taverna Dialeskari
After conquering the stunning Aradena Gorge, treat yourself to a delightful dinner experience at Taverna Dialeskari in Marmara. Nestled amidst the scenic beauty of Crete, this charming taverna offers mouthwatering Cretan cuisine and warm hospitality. Indulge in traditional dishes crafted from fresh local ingredients, complemented by panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and Marmara Beach. With its inviting ambiance and delicious fare, Taverna Dialeskari is the perfect ending to your adventure in Marmara. Enjoy a delicious lunch with one round of drinks included, making your visit even more special.
After experiencing the majestic Aradena Gorge, unwind at the serene Marmara Beach. This beautiful beach offers crystal-clear waters perfect for a refreshing swim and relaxation. Surrounded by stunning cliffs and natural beauty, Marmara Beach provides a tranquil escape where you can bask in the sun and enjoy the peaceful ambiance .
Livaniana
After your refreshing swim and lunch in the light-blue Marmara Beach, enjoy a leisurely 30-minute hike to Livadiana. From there, we will start our scenic journey back to Chania, ensuring you experience the beauty of Crete every step of the way.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
