Paleochora has been a party place for decades. Although nowadays is more “cool”, and not the famous party spot it used to be, there are still numerous music bars and a few clubs that can keep you awake…

Pearl Cavo beach bar and Atoli bar are the most popular live music places in Paleochora. Pearl Cavo is famous for its Monday live shows, and in recent years many small bands have come to play there. Usually the music style is jazz, soul & funk and sometimes rock and reggae. You will find the minivan for Pearl Cavo beach bar right next to the jetty.

Atoli Bar is located on the sandy beach and every July and August brings different bands varying from rock to ambient. You can also enjoy your cocktails there and watch the sun go down. It is not a coincidence that, for many visitors, Paleochora has one of the best sunsets on earth!

A vibrant destination in its own right, Paleochora is proud to have possibly the best and most varied entertainment and nightlife in South Crete. Enjoy!
