Introducing Agios Nikolaos
Lasithi’s capital, Agios Nikolaos (ah-yee-os nih-ko-laos), is an undeniably attractive former fishing village set around a pleasant harbour and a small, picturesque lake connected to the sea.
In the early 1960s it became a chic hideaway for the likes of Jules Dassin and Walt Disney, but by the end of the decade, package tourists were arriving in force and it became an overdeveloped tourist town. It’s had its ups and downs ever since.
