Erimoupoli beach lies right behind the ruins of an ancient Dorian settlement where it is possible to see ancient temples and early Christian churches. Much of Itanos ruins continue underwater and can be explored with basic snorkelling equipment, the approach is easy and is family-friendly as it's not overcrowded!

The name is taken after the ancient city Itanos, sited in the area. Next to the archaeological site of Itanos there are the three consecutive bays of Erimoupolis (a second name of the region). Thus, you can combine your visit to the archaeological site with a dip in the cool waters. It is noteworthy to tell that part of the ancient Itanos is under water. Thus, a unique experience is to snorkel above the ruins, which now house only fish!

About 3km north of Vai is the ancient Minoan site of Itanos, It may appear fairly desolate today, but this was an important site, especially in ancient times. A lot of people combiine their visit to Palm Beach of Vai to visit this significant site as well. A short drive north of Palm Beach Vai (2 km) you find the relatively isolated bays and beaches of Itanos . In fact, there are 3 beaches here: the first is the one at the end of the road, the second is reached walking to the north (the beach on the photo) and the third is also reached walking south behind the small fortress. The third one is also suitable to spend time under the shade of the palm-trees. As an extra bonus there is a Minoan city at the entrance of the main beach. Itanos was one of the most influential places in the east of Crete. It florished from early Minoan to early Byzantian times. There are traces of a basilic and of Greek walls, and a lot of fallen apart traces on the hill. The region is pretty secluded and untouched by tourism, making the beaches very peaceful and relaxing. The beach is surrounded by small hills with low vegetation and has crystalline waters, safe for children as well.
