Go shopping in Chania
Maleme has a couple of supermarkets that are handy for essentials and picnic nibbles. Meanwhile, neighbouring Platanias comes with lots of tourist shops selling holiday mementos. Or there’s Chania, less than half-an-hour away. It’s got a famous indoor produce market – ask for the Agora – plus clothes shops and places selling locally-produced ceramics, jewellery and handmade rugs.
