Gouves is a residential area which is neither a village nor a town, mostly developed because of tourism. It has a main road that starts from the highway and ends to the coast of the seaside village. This place is full of hotels, apartments and rooms to let. Gouves offers peaceful holidays, ideal for families with children. Here you will find mostly families that enjoy the lovely sandy beaches, close to all necessary amenities. The beach of Gouves is very well organized with umbrellas, sunbeds, water sports, showers and changing rooms. The sea has fine sand and shallow water but is open to the frequent north winds, that’s why it is wavy. Therefore, there are several small piers and small marinas nearby, where you can swim, protected by the waves. The road of Gouves runs along the coast, which is full of beach bars, coffee shops and restaurants. In the evening you can walk along this road and enjoy the sunset. A place worth visiting is the church of St. Constantine, which is built within a small pine forest, just next to the sea. It is situated in a very scenic seascape and this is why hundreds of couples from Heraklion choose to get married here. Further north, you can visit the Cave of Agia Paraskevi, located near the village of Skotino.
