About Nea Chora

Nea Chora ('New Town') gives Chania a proper beach within walking distance of the Venetian harbour and Old Town. Its seafront promenade is lined with fish tavernas, Akrogiali among the most acclaimed, and faces an organised sandy beach with all the day-to-day amenities of a real neighbourhood. It blends holiday appeal with year-round liveability: walkable, flat and authentically local. Prices track Chania's hot ~€3,400/m² municipal average (with a sea-view premium) after a ~20% YoY surge that is likely to cool.
