The seaside village of Loutro is located at a distance of about 85 km. south of Hania, at the end of Cape Mouri. It is believed that this was the site of the ancient city of Finikas, which is reffered to in the "Apostles' Acts" and was the port of ancient Anopolis. Later, it became the winter time port of the town of Sfakia, due to the fact that the enclosed bay and the small island in its entrance create a natural harbour where ships can be safe even at very bad weather conditions. The village was named after the baths which have been found in the area and from which water was directed to nearby Anopolis. Today, the village is a great attraction for tourists who come here in great numbers during the summer. Among the older buildings that you can see here, you will find the Municipal Building used by the first government, in 1821. From Loutro you can visit the ruins of the ancient town of Aradena, with the Byzantine Curch of Archangel Michael as well as the ruins of ancient Anopolis
