Agia Pelagia, the one-time fishing village, is now surrounded by some of Crete's most amazing hotels, resorts, and restaurants. Though a bit too touristy in the last few years, it is still one of our favorite swimming places. The bay in front of the village is protected, so there is very little wind to churn up big surf.
The water here is cool given that ancient underground springs feed into the bay. Expect a fully developed beach experience, and one of the best sunrises on the island. If not for the crowded nature of this beach in peak season, it could easily be a 10.
