Located in the Regional Unit of Chania, the Municipality of Platanias extends from the Gulf of Chania towards the mainland and the northwesternmost fringes of the Lefka Ori mountain range. Its coastline is one of the most popular touristic destinations in the region. Within its borders NATURA 2000 protected areas are included, (i.e Fasa valley, Keritis stream, the entrance to the Samarian Gorge), while key issues for viticulture are land fragmentation (93.1% of the vineyars are ~0.3ha) and land use change.
