Why visit

Is Falassarna your kind of day?

KTEL Chania–Rethymno's edition valid from 11 September 2026 publishes Chania–Falassarna in both directions. Marked journeys require a change at Kasteli (Kissamos), so read the notation for the journey and direction you select.

A checked endpoint pair

The 11 September edition publishes Chania–Falassarna and Falassarna–Chania rows.

A marked interchange

Specified journeys show a change at Kasteli (Kissamos); the notation determines when it applies.

Direction matters

Read the outbound and return rows separately in the edition covering your date.

Practical context

Good to know before you go

  • Check the publication validity date before selecting a journey.
  • Do not assume every listed journey uses the same interchange pattern.
  • The timetable establishes the transport row, not beach facilities or walking access.
  • This guide does not provide live departure information; use the official operator tools.
