The Dionysades Islands are a great geotope with dozens of caves that can be entered even by boat. One of their largest sea caves is located on the southern side of the southernmost island, Gianysada.
The Folklore and Historical Museum of Archanes is housed in a beautiful two-story mansion from 1771, near the church of Agios Nikolaos in Ano Archanes.
Sfakos is located between Menies and Kolymbari. It is one of the most isolated beaches in Crete, as access from land is possible, but very difficult. Almost exclusively, most people come to it by boat from nearby Kolymbari or other beaches near Chania.
On the eastern side of Vroulia Bay, between the magnificent Kedrodasos and the church of Agios Ioannis, near the cape of Krios, a series of small secluded beaches are formed where you will most likely be isolated. However, you should be aware that there are no trees and no natural shade.
Vraskos beach is located in a secluded location at the exit of a small gorge between Koutalis and Almyrida, in the vicinity of Kokkinos Chorio. The wider area is full of fantastic caves.
Limnionari or Agios Georgios beach is located in one of the most isolated areas of Crete. It is formed in a narrow bay at the exit of the Agios Georgios gorge, which starts south of the now deserted monastery of Saint George in Menies.
The waters of the entire area, and not only of Vyzaroplaka, are among the cleanest and clearest in Crete. The beach is protected from the summer meltemi and the westerly winds and almost never has waves.
