Agios Nikolaos (Crete)

Agios Nikolaos is a coastal town on the Greek island of Crete, lying east of the island's capital Heraklion. The town sits partially upon the ruins of the ancient city of Lato pros Kamara. Agios Nikolaos is best known as a tourist town that serves as a hub to the twenty or so small villages and farms that make up that part of Lassithi. Tourist attractions include the small lagoon Lake Voulismeni, small beaches in the town, the tiny island Agioi Pantes, the archaeological museum, the local flora exhibition “Iris” and numerous fairs. The lagoon features a small park with a trail, traditional fishing boats, ducks, pigeons, an amphitheatre and many cafès.
