Southern Crete: taverns. Accommodation. Cars. Beaches. Markets.
Rock and roll.
“The Greeks have dreamed the dream of life most beautifully,”
We couldn’t agree more with Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. That’s why we showcase the beauty and many attractions of Matala, Pitsidia and Messara on these pages. At the same time, we want to bring holidaymakers and locals closer together. That’s why we have sections such as ‘Taverns’, ‘Accommodation’ and ‘Cars’, as well as reports on the incredible beaches, exciting markets and secluded mountains.
Above all, we focus on personal contact between visitors and residents of this beautiful island – and we’re happy to do so without the big booking platforms, which not only ruin prices but also communication.
pitsidia.rocks is still under construction and will continue to evolve. That’s why we need your support. Send us your opinions and requests, but also your contacts for ‘your’ favourite local accommodation, taverns and beaches.
Our blog
Komos Beach
No sunbeds and no parasols at Komos Beach. Is this good news or bad news?
Alone Together
A little melancholy, a little sentimentality and a whole lot of rock and blues and sweat and love: that’s Alone Together.
Meeting Place
The name says it all: The Meeting Place and the village square of Pitsidia have always been a meeting place for locals and holidaymakers. May get late.
Xenios Dias
The name says it all: Xenios Dias is the ancient god of hospitality.
Irene Komos
Between Pitsidia and Matala, 800 metres from Komos Beach.
Elli’s Grillhouse
Everything we love about the south of Crete in one place.
Hotel Marina
There is a terrace, pool and snack bar in the garden in front of the Hotel Marina. Everything is a little spartan, but stylish and Mediterranean in design.
Matala Beach Festival 2025
Imagine all the people living life in peace.
Our services
‘How many things there are that I do not need.’
But even Socrates, quoted here, needed a few things – for example, a bed, food and drink, goals and the means to achieve his goals. You can find all of this here at pitsidia.rocks.
It is important to us to bring holidaymakers and locals into conversation with each other, face to face. This is a place for people to communicate with people. It’s fun, provides personal information and may even save you money.
ACCOMMODATIONS
A room with breakfast, an apartment with a kitchen, a whole house, or a bed with a pool and breakfast? Here, you’ll find everything – except mass tourism.
TAVERNS
We all know where to find the best Pita in the world, but there are, of course, other offerings too. From grilled plates to vegan options.
BEACHES
The beaches and attractions around Pitsidia are world-famous – and rightly so. With showers, mountains, Mythos, and if needed, sun loungers.
CARS
Sometimes, a car is nice. Or a scooter. No global players, only local providers.
GET CONNECTED!
Even our accounts on Instagram and Facebook are still under construction – but soon, you’ll find regular updates from and around Pitsidia and its surroundings here.
