Matala is a small fishing village that has not lost its unmistakable charm to this day. Here you have the opportunity to visit the world-famous caves of Matala. In these caves, the ancient Cretans buried their dead. In the mid-sixties, Hippys recognized these caves and lived there until the 1970s. Even today you can see many old hippies who visit this place again and again.
