Plot for Sale in Agios Ioannis Hersonisos. Location Information:
Hersonissos nowadays is considered as the most developed tourist resort of Crete, due to the high range of quality services and attractions provided, and it is able to fulfil all the expectations. Near Hersonissos there are three small villages, Piskopiano and Koutouloufari and Old Hersonissos which are overlooking the busy resort of Hersonissos.
The harbour of Hersonissos is famous for its night life and is mostly preferred by younger tourists who want to have fun at the beach and enjoy the nightlife, while the neighbouring villages offer quiet and peaceful environment for family vacation.
This town is nothing new. Its origin dates back to the Minoan civilization, one of the largest in the Mediterranean during ancient times. While the Minoans mysteriously disappeared, Hersonissos remained important, especially under Roman rule.
Then, due to continuous raids by pirates, the city fell off the map for centuries (in 1900 it had as few as 133 inhabitants). Tourism, beginning in 1960, brought the town back to life, as this beautiful spot was literally redesigned to be the perfect vacation spot. Hersonissos is now a world with one purpose only: encouraging visitors to let loose
Hersonissos is a very popular resort location and one of the most popular on Crete. If you’re looking for a luxurious vacation among fellow travellers, this is the place for you. If, on the other hand, you’re looking to explore the unexplored, there are over 6,000 Greek islands to choose from.
