Yes, Crete even has a few lakes

My journal

Believe it or not, the island of Crete known for its award-winning beaches has a few lakes.

One of them just 15 min drive from the city center of Chania in the area of Agia. And that is actually the name of the lake.

Penelope and I took a short day trip and enjoyed nature together with the lakes ducks and geese.

When on the island perhaps lake Agia should be on your radar of visits.
