Basically a cluster of three small and sheltered bays separated by rocky outcrops: they have sand, blue-green waters and plenty of vegetation all around. The name, the Holy Apostles, comes from a church near there.
The beach is popular: well-organized, as well as the umbrellas, sunbeds and showers – and a lifeguard, you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to water-sports, not to mention a tennis court, volley-ball and football.
A feature here are the beach bars, where you can enjoy a drink. Naturally a large number of hotels, apartments and rooms to rent are available, along with a plethora of tavernas, restaurants and bars.
Bypassing Chania town and a number of beaches on both of its flanks, on the northwest side of the Akrotiri Peninsular we come to Stavros.

Sustainability in tourism refers to a way of developing tourism that respects and protects the environment while strengthening the local economy and preserving cultural traditions. The aim of sustainable tourism is to provide unique and authentic experiences for visitors without harming the natural and social environment, while ensuring that local communities benefit from tourism activity.
This type of tourism is based on three pillars:
With sustainable tourism, visitors can have authentic experiences, knowing that the impact of tourism on the region is positive and lasting for future generations.
For Rural Greece, localism is one of the most important factors for the development of sustainable tourism, as it promotes a strong link between the tourism product and the local society, economy and culture. Through localism, visitors get the opportunity to explore authentic elements of the destination, such as local products, traditions and culture. This not only boosts the local economy, but also helps to sustain and strengthen local businesses, creating new jobs and supporting the development of local communities.
Furthermore, localism contributes to the sustainability of the tourism sector, as it reduces the use of resources from other regions and encourages the use of local goods and services, reducing the ecological footprint of tourism activities. Thus, integrating localism into tourism practices enhances sustainability awareness, both among visitors and local businesses, creating a more responsible and sustainable tourism destination.
