Location

Fodele Beach & Water Park Holiday Resort, 25 km west of Heraklion international airport in Crete, lies on a unique location with a breathtaking view, on the exquisite sandy beach of Fodele area (birthplace of the world-wide famous painter Dominikos Theotokopoulos, well known as EL GRECO). At the 25th km on the Heraklion - Rethymno highway is the junction for Fodele. On the right, there are two wonderful beaches. Nearby, there is a river which is called Pandomandris. The river flows by the road and it reaches the village, after a wonderful ride among orange trees. Fodele is a mountainous area at an altitude of 60m above sea level. Both the original area on the western side of the small valley and the newer part at the banks of the small river provide a fascinating insight into Cretan life. This area, combines many elements of Greek nature including the rich vegetation and the orange groves, creating a unique landscape for central Crete.
