Faistos Beach Holiday
A Faistos holiday makes it simple to kick back and unwind. Whether you like the idea of chilling out by the water or walking along the shore in search of shiny seashells, a trip to Faistos will leave you refreshed and rejuvenated. If you'd rather be near the centre of town, base yourself around Beach of Matala. This popular strip of coastline is just 10 kilometres away. We also offer Faistos holiday packages close to Komos Beach and Red Beach, two other beautiful nearby options.
