Description
Gouves (zip code 700 14) – Popular holiday resort and residential area in the north of Heraklion 🌄 Location & Surroundings Gouves, also known as Kato Gouves, is a lively coastal town in Heraklion Prefecture, located on the northern coast of Crete, about halfway between the island's capital Heraklion and the party hotspots of Hersonissos and Malia. The name “Gouves” often refers to the wider region, including the traditional village of Epan Gouves or Pano Gouves further inland. The coastal area (Kato Gouves) is characterized by extensive sandy beaches, hotels, tourist facilities and a well-developed infrastructure. The area is ideal for visitors and residents who value proximity to the sea and leisure opportunities. Gouves is an attractive option for anyone looking to buy a house in Crete or a villa in Crete in an easily accessible and tourist-established location. 🏘️ Character & attitude to life Kato Gouves is a lively holiday resort that is particularly suitable for families and couples. It offers a wide range of restaurants, bars, cafes and shops along the seafront promenade. The beaches are well maintained and offer numerous water sports opportunities.
