Malia, Malia Malia, Malia Holidays are great whatever time you visit but from the 1st of July unti lthe 15th August Malia is full of the young and lively looking to party.

Sunbeds are strategically placed for you to sleep off the last night's excesses, and for those with energy, there are watersports, jet-skis, ringos and pedaloes to play on.
Behind the beach there's a string of bars and snack bars – so you can re-fuel without losing tanning time. And along the 'strip' leading inland you can virtually name your menu – burgers, Mexican, British, Chinese, Indian and the odd Greek eatery. This single road is also the hub of after-dark activity, crammed with bars, pubs and discos that open at dusk and have no plans to close before dawn.
But Malia Holidays are much more than their legendary nightlife. The old sector of the village is actually quite charming – retaining a flavour of Greece against all the odds. And there's a huge variety of choice holidays and cheap holidays in Malia – from affordable luxury in the family-friendly Hotel Cretan Park, to self-catering holidays in stylish little complexes and great late deals for last minute holidays to Malia.
