Vai Palm Forest

This palm forest is the largest in Europe, the palms are Phoenix Theophrasti and are unique to Crete.Windsurfing and jet-skiing are popular here, topless bathing is common and nudist bathing is popular at the beautiful small beach of Psili Ammos, reached by a track over the headland from the south of Vai Beach.This is not a beach for the faint-hearted, it gets really, really crowded in summer. Get there early, very early, to enjoy it best.Head to the north end of the beach to get away from the umbrellas and lounges and relax on the sand.
