Amoudara Resort

The Amoudara resort is located on the north coast of Crete, west of the capital of Heraklion. While other resorts in this area have mostly emerged as a result of the transformation of fishing villages, Amoudara has been built with the intention to create a new and modern tourist resort since the very beginning. The Amoudara resort is very popular for several reasons: the surroundings of Heraklion are renowned for its wide and plain beaches, sought after both by typical holiday-makers enjoying the water, sun and peace, but also people who prefer to spend their holiday more actively practicing water sports and playing beach games. 

What to do in Amoudara

Amoudara is a place perfectly equipped both with tavernas and night venues open all night long, but also in terms of shopping - in the resort you will find both small souvenir shops and huge retail chains like Marks & Spencer. With its location approximately in the centre of the island, the Amoudara resort is a perfect point of departure to make trips and get to know the island.
