Travel guide of ChaniaIn the old harbour in Chania on the island of Crete stands a lighthouse. This rustic old building can be seen from any part of the old harbour and is one of the things everyone visiting is bound to remember. I have taken many snapshots of this lighthouse over the years. But this time I wanted to get an image that was more true to how I picture it in my mind when I remember it. The combination of the old historic location, the fiery sunset and the couple next to it fulfils most of the emotions I have associated with this location. I got my image.

West coast of Crete, Greece, the afternoon is touching to an end. We get in the car, leaving the beach early to go up and watch the sunset from the mountains. Behind a curve, we’re suddenly blocked by a flock of goats. We stop the car and I grab my Fuji. The shepherd is here, pouring corn on the side of the road to feed the beasts. As the sun start to redden, the goats hurry on either side of the grain. Dinner’s ready!

One of the best beaches of South Crete located east from kalous limenes in south Heraklion. What is fascinating is the cleanness of the area by the residents.

Jellyfish are so mesmerising to watch as they pulsate through the water, without purpose or destination they are beautiful creatures that deserve to be captured in the moment.

the beach ισ so special because of the beautiful rocks on the beach itself and in the sea. If you swim around the rock to the east you will end up at another small beach. The name Listis comes from a rocky area on the east side where there are several caves: according to the local residents a bandit (Listis) lived in one of the caves
