About Mochlos
In Minoan times Mochlos was an important port in eastern Crete and you can still take a small boat to the island, which lies only 150 metres off the bay, to visit the excavations of that time. Today Mochlos is a peaceful little village with a picturesque harbour and crystal clear waters and it is therefore an ideal spot for those travellers who are looking for a quieter holiday. The bays around Mochlos are mainly rocky and great for snorkelling and one can find a small shingle and a sandy beach in the area.
