Parks & Nature
Most famous gorge of Crete, stunning nature, you will be impressed. Definitely worth the hike which takes 4 up to 6 hours. I recommend you to take your time, just make sure that you are around 5 in Agia Roumeli to catch the boat at 5.30 - it runs only once a day.

Enjoy the beauty of nature . The scent of herbs like thyme and oregano makes it a pleasure to hike. There is lots of shade so even in summer it is nice to hike.

Everything Else
In Polemarchi you can do a unique visit to a honeybee garden. It is only by appointment, a tour lasts 2 hours and is very interesting as the beekeeper has a great passion for his work. Of course you can try out the honey as well.

Scenic drive through the gorge of Therisso. I would recommend to continue the road after Therisso and take the road up to Zourva, only one tavern but great local food
