You can find many shops with souvenirs, clothes and anything you can think of in Gouves and there are quite a few hotels and apartment complexes where you can stay. Along the quay and in the village there are many restaurants and taverns to choose from, including two Chinese restaurants and fast food restaurants. There are also bars and there is some night life. In addition the village has several other facilities such as a pharmacy, a medical clinic, several supermarkets and ATMs. More importantly perhaps is that there are good beaches in the village. The "boulevard" of the village is a few miles long and when you follow it you will pass several sandy beaches. These beaches are organized and you can rent umbrellas and sun bed and there is a possibility for various water sports like jet skiing, water skiing and canoeing. It all sounds terribly touristy but still it is pleasant to stay here (especially out of season). It can not compare with places like Malia or Chersonissos where it is much busier and more commercial, and where traffic is much busier. In one way or another there is a relaxed atmosphere here and it is really not that busy. |
