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.
