What to see around Hersonissos
My husband and I are going to Hersonissos for 10 days. We really want to rent a car and drive around the main attractions for 3-4 days. Therefore, the question for connoisseurs: what can you see in this region? Does anyone have a link to a guidebook? Is it possible (and how much does it cost) to get to Halkidiki by car?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Guidebooks are sold there on every corner. Crete itself is small, we traveled all over it from Rethymnon. Near Hersonissos, I can recommend Minos Palace. You can go to Vai beach, it is very beautiful there, but it is already to the east of the island, beyond Agilos Nikolas. Closer from Hersonissos than from Rethymnon. But the roads are mountainous. Go to Rethymno, to Chania. It's great there. If you have enough strength, I also recommend Gramvus.
Well, buy a guidebook, lay the route yourself, as it will be more convenient and interesting for you.

In the port of Herosnissos there are boat trips along the coast, to the islet of Dia, as well as excursions on the Nemo and Poseidon glass bottom boats. A tourist train runs along the main street of the village, its stops and routes can be easily found at the reception of your hotel.
In Hersonissos there is an open-air museum Lychnostasis with quite interesting exhibits - a wine press, an olive oil press, a windmill ... Open from 9 to 14, admission is paid.
In addition, jeep safaris are organized from Hersonissos - for the whole day, along the dirt roads of Lassithi.
The nearest diving center is located in Malia (30 km).

Getting to Halkidiki is difficult, but possible. From Chersonesus to the port of Piraeus, the ferry Anek Line runs. The prices are reasonable. Leaves in the evening, arrives early in the morning. You can buy a cabin, but you can even without a place. There are rooms for sleeping either on the floor on soft carpets, or in armchairs, such as first-class aircraft. By evening (not late) you can get to New Mudanya. Do not exceed the speed limit by more than 30 km/h. The fines will also reach Russia.

If you stop in Hersonissos itself, then the train does not make sense. Palace of Minos (Palace of Knossos) - just to note that they were there and take a walk through the ruins. Walk in Heraklion itself. From Hersonissos, in the other direction, visit Malia, Agios Nikolas in the port, Bounty beach, then Ierapetra, Lassithi and the cave of Zeus. Stay on about Spinalonga.
Go inland from Hersonissos to another village and visit a real Greek tavern. This is completely different than in Hersonissos itself.
