Hi, we are planning a visit to Plakias this year after a break of 4 years.
The restaurants on the front like Sofia's used to do set meals for about €20 does anyone know if they still do these and what the current prices are?

Last year we ate for less. But it may vary by someones choice. Tradition
als like kleftiko, stifado etc. were about 8-10€ iirc.

Kali orexi!

PlakChat / Plakias - Heraklion airport

Has anyone 0f you used this route from iraklio to plakias? We think about an alternative as we drove the "New Road" so many times in the past that it became our "Old Road".
Google maps says 2:58 hrs for this but I think this is a little bit optimistic ...

Paradise is lost.
No daily cruises to preveli anymore.

A man died in Rodakino. I heard about another fire west of plakias. Can anyone confirm this?


So sad!

There is a new book about Plakias which is availlable in several Supermarkets: "Ο Πλακιάς του χθες" by Charidimos Andrea Papadakis. Loads of historic photos (b&w) from the early days of photograpy til the
beginning 80s, but mostly the 50s-70s. All Greek, 15€

I'm just reading "Just Kids" by Patti Smith.  
From Brooklyn to Chelsea Hotel, a Life of Art and Friendship (English Edition)

"Smith's evocative, honest and moving coming-of-age story reveals her extraordinary relationship with artist Robert Mapplethorpe. Part romance, part elegy, "Just Kids" is about friendship in the truest sense, and the artist's calling."

A wonderful piece of paper!
