Falassarna (also spelled Falasarna) is not just one beach but a series of beaches located on the western coast of Crete, about 59 km from Chania. The main and most famous beach is a long, wide stretch of golden sand called Pachia Ammos ("Coarse Sand"). It's renowned for its crystal-clear turquoise waters and has been voted one of the best beaches in Europe.
While not as intensely pink as Elafonisi, Falassarna does have beautiful pinkish hues, especially near the shoreline where tiny crushed red and pink shells mix with the golden sand. The effect is most noticeable when the sand is wet.
The main beach has a gently sloping sandy bottom that is shallow for the first few meters, making it ideal for children to play in. However, on windy days, the waves can become strong, so supervision is necessary. The organized sections offer amenities like cafes and toilets, which are convenient for families.
