In the centre of the area Gialia and near the ruins of the Minoan town of Lamon, a few fishermen built a small settlement called Plakias. At the time, the rest of the local population of farmers and herdsmen had established their villages along the slopes of the mountains as security from pirate raids. However, the natural riches of the sea (fish, salt, etc.) attracted others to the coast and in time a thriving fishing community had developed. For 320 days each year the sun warms the atmosphere and Mother Earth with her plentiful supplies of water makes for a rich and fruitful land. Here nothing is difficult! Thus, the people are courteous and serene and peacefully philosophise about life. Many visitors discover this different place and way of life and return many times with some even staying permanently. And so the fishing-village of today lives alongside a tourist resort which local artisans have fashioned in accordance with the character of the people and the climatic conditions of the area. Plakias can therfore offer the visitors all the amenities of a modern holiday resort coupled with the traditions and friendliness of the local people; vestiges of another age.
