A Few Words About Apokoronas Apokoronas is one of the five provinces of the Chania region, located in its northeastern part. Archaeological findings show that human presence in Apokoronas dates back to the Neolithic Period, around 8,000–6,000 BC. Significant discoveries have been made in areas like Melidoni and between the villages of Samonas and Stylos, where remnants of ancient dwellings were found.Covering an area of 315 square kilometers, the landscape of Apokoronas is diverse, featuring plains, semi-mountainous, and mountainous regions dominated by the White Mountains, which are snow-covered during the winter months. According to a 2001 census, the population was recorded at 12,623 residents.Apokoronas holds great geographical importance as it connects Chania with the other regions of Crete. The southern part of Souda Bay reaches into Apokoronas, where the Almyros Bay (or Georgioupoli Bay) is located. The area is known for its charming villages, both coastal—such as Almyrida, Kalyves, and Georgioupoli—and mountainous, like Megala Chorafia, near the ancient city of Aptera, one of the most significant city-states in Western Crete, which remained autonomous throughout the Greek period (6th–4th century BC).The region is rich in natural beauty, with lush olive groves, hiking trails, and rivers such as Koiliaris, Xydias, Vryssanos, Almyros, and Delfinas. Apokoronas also boasts impressive gorges, including the Diktamos Gorge, which begins in Katochori-Keramia and ends near the village of Stylos, the Agios Nikolaos Gorge between the villages of Ramni and Machairoi, and the gorge near Asi Gonia. So far, 213 caves of great historical and environmental significance have been recorded in the area.
