Parking And Traffic Information In Chania

Driving in the Old Town of Chania means negotiating through narrow lanes. It's perfectly possible, but be prepared to wait for traffic to pass through. Elsewhere, tourists will have no problems navigating the city's streets. The main roads are looked after very well by Cretan authorities, but most of the roads are windy and hug the coast and steep mountainsides. Free parking is available on either side of the Old Harbour, as well as at the Customs House Square. The municipal market also offers parking facilities, unless it's a market day, which is when vendors will use the parking spaces to sell their goods.
