Diskos Beach

The beach Ditiko (Diskos) resembles a place forgotten from time. It still is the paradise of camping and tens of tents are set up each summer under the enormous lion-shaped rock that dominates above Lentas. Lentas comes from the Greek word “Leontas”, which means “lion”. A lion that protects the south coast of Crete…This rock keeps the sunrays away from the tents in the early morning, thus preventing the early morning rise. Surely, the campers all over, consider this a great advantage. Of course there are plenty of tamarisk trees, which offer their shade almost throughout the day. There are plenty of rooms for rent on beach Ditiko (Diskos) plus 3-4 taverns. People resorting here, love the wild beauty of nature, the relaxed and primitive atmosphere and the makings of relative isolation this long beach has to offer.
