Lasithi is a tourist region of Crete, located on the eastern side of the island. A famous destination for island hopping from Santorini and Mykonos - some of the most famous gay havens of Greece.
Despite being a sister-island of those two, Crete is nothing alike. You will not find gay venues and wild nightlife on this traditional-like island, where the church plays a strong part. The local gays are driven firmly by this characteristic so you will not find any obviously open in Lasithi.
Lasithi may not have the cosmopolitan gay nightlife but still there are many gay-friendly venues and hotels harbouring here. Greece was always known for having amazing crystal-clear beaches and Lasithi is not an exception. On the contrary, the region has such a big variety of beautiful crowded or secluded beaches that the travellers are almost always dumbfounded in between choices.
The best beach in this area is undoubtedly the Vai beach, a sandy shore covered with exotic palms. By exploring the various picturesque villages of Lasithi you will for sure find the ideal beach to relax and enjoy your leisure holidays.
