Plakias / Plakias tavernas - any new ones?
« Last post by DandC on May 21, 2025, 03:02:42 PM »Kalispera
With the sad demise of Tasos, any new tavernas sprung up in Plakias/Myrthios or surrounding area?
We noticed Kapilio had opened in Myrthios, but didn't get a chance to visit - I think it only opens evenings? Any reviews please?
Whilst I'm asking, there's a taverna Rousolakos Preveli listed on Tripadvisor - looks like on road to the Preveli monastery, but I twice tried to find it, without success
Anyone give me a pointer please?

Just beware of the cost though.... I'm on Vodafone and it cost me 39p to send a text (although nothing to receive one). I made no calls myself but Rob used up all my remaining £5 credit when he rang me on the first Sturday night for a call which lasted 3 minutes at most. It might have been costing him £2 a minute but it also cost me to receive the call! It's also a bit hit and miss as to whether the message gets sent instantly and sending by replying too didn't seem to work unless I took the 44 off the beginning of the number and replaced the 0.
By the way, Rob 's on Virgin and his phone didn't work although I read on the Virgin site that you can use your phone abroad if you are on their monthly direct debit service although not, it seems, on the Pay as you Go!

Gossip / Re: How did you first find Plakias?
« Last post by kokkinos vrachos on May 05, 2025, 12:32:12 PM »Kalimera, I've been visiting Crete since 2008 and have had one or more bases every year on each visit to the island and then explored the area extensively.
My first visit was in October 2014. The destinations: Frangokastello, Plakias and Agia Galini. In Plakias, I went to the Thetis Rooms, which no longer exist.
Then again in Plakias in October 2015.
Then I was back in Plakias in October 2020 and April and October 2022.
Since April 2023, I've been in Souda/Plakias twice a year for several months.
Now in March/April was my 10th visit to Plakias...
Best regards from Hamburg, kv

Tasos took me hitchhiking from Plakias to Souda a few times in April. Super nice guy. His wife has also taken me hitchhiking.

So Tasos is still doing his boat tours, as he did out of former Tasomanolis Taverna.
