Tourism in Agia Pelagia, Crete, Greece VIP servicesWelcome to Agia Pelagia! Tourism in Crete has been a key element of the economic activity in the island, and is one of the country's most important sectors. Crete island has been a major tourist destination and attraction in Europe since the 1970s for its rich culture and history, which is reflected in large part by its UNESCO World Heritage Sites, among the most in Europe and the world as well as for its long coastline, many islands, and beaches. Modern day Agia Pelagia is a holiday resort, tourism and commerce are the main economic activities in the town, with plenty of hotels, restaurants, gift shops, bars and nightclubs. Agia Pelagia in Crete, is one of the most popular north coast resorts. Two main sources of wealth in Agia Pelagia are agriculture and tourism. Agia Pelagia was then a fishing village. The large deep cove of Agia Pelagia itself is surrounded by the smaller Ligaria Cove on the east and Mononaftis Bay on the west. The picturesque white buildings, the bluish-green of the Mediterranean and the varying shades from sandy brown to lush green along the shore, create a landscape of rare beauty. Agia Pelagia is an awe-inspiring example of the beauty of Cretan Nature and it's almost impossible to resist taking a closer look. We drive downhill to the main area of Agia Pelagia, which is built amphitheatric-like on the hills and slopes around the shore, creating an even more impressive sight when viewed from above. Along the road, which slopes quite steep at times, you'll begin to see the first of the hillside hotels, and tourists sweating as they walk uphill from the beachfront. Remember, these first hotels are quite far from the beach and the developed centre of Agia Pelagia, which means – unless you're a dedicated walker – you must rent a car or bike in order to explore the area's different beaches and many other interesting sites. Agia Pelagia has developed around its shores, so that's where you'll find many of the tavernas and cafeterias. In the center of Agia Pelagia you will find a super market, tourism offices, pharmacy, an ATM, tourist and souvenir shops and the taxi stand.
