Gra Lygia village is nestled at the mouth of a rich valley, it is surrounded by greenhouses filled with early-ripening vegetables. The locals were pioneers in the use of greenhouse agriculture, a practice that has since spread throughout Crete.
Aside from farming, tourism also forms an essential part of the local economy. Gra Ligia, with its recent mild growth, is among the newest holiday destinations on Crete. This growth has been facilitated by the appealing long beach, with tranquil waters, amenities like umbrellas and showers, albeit not on a large scale and tamarisk trees that provide shade and greenery. The beach is a popular spot for locals who enjoy swimming and fishing.
The beach is also a venue for local events such as beach soccer tournaments. If you’re fortunate, you might even have a chance to partake in the unique “xentomatiasmata” or tomato war, a tradition revived and celebrated in early summer. Gra Ligia is an ideal destination for those seeking a peaceful and relaxing holiday.

In the evenings, visitors can unwind with a drink at local coffee shops or take a short trip to Ierapetra or the near village Myrtos, where you can find many more bars and coffee shops especially popular with tourists Gra lygia can be an ideal starting point for excursions in south-eastern Crete, to discover antiquities, diverse natural landscapes unique beaches & authentic Cretan flavors and music.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This spotlessly clean and thoughtfully arranged space is located just a few steps from a city beach. The ocean here, at least during our stay, was so calm and clean. It is far from touristy - it is a beach popular with the local citizens of Gra Ligia and so different from other parts of our stay in Crete. We really enjoyed relaxing here. The centre of the bigger city of Ierapetra is about 10 minutes drive from here and we did go in a couple of times, but we preferred to relax here for a break from a faster paced trip. There is a very nice stretch of beach fronted by local homes, and then just a regular town. For more sightseeing one would need to drive to a variety of options in the region. As the owner notes in the listing, the only interior door is to the washroom. If these factors work for you, I recommend this place. We really enjoyed it!
