Korfalonas

Korfalonas is a small coastal locality in western Crete, Greece. It sits near the Mediterranean coast and serves as a gateway for travelers exploring the Chania region. With limited local diving activity indicated, most dive opportunities nearby would be accessible from larger ports along the north coast, or by day trips to more active sites in the Heraklion or Chania areas. The area is better known for its beaches and natural scenery, rather than a concentrated dive hub. If you’re visiting for diving, plan to base yourself in a larger town with established dive centers and frequent offshore trips.
