The beach is one of the two located in the town of Paleochora in the south-western tip of Crete. Paleochora is a small town of 2,000 inhabitants that is located approximately 80 km from Chania city and attracts many tourists every year. The village is built on a peninsula next to the ruins of the Venetian castle of Selino that gave its name to the municipality. To the left and the right of the castle lie two extensive beaches, a pebbly beach (Chalikia) to the east and a thick sandy beach (Pachia Ammos) to the west. Due to the opposite direction of each of these two beaches, on the same day, one can have big waves and the other can be calm, making Paleochora the ideal destination for beach lovers.
