Ikaros Market
About
Ikaros Market serves Crete from Vlastou 5 in Malia, a resort settlement on the island's northern coast. The shop carries a 4.8 out of 5 rating, drawn from 6 reviews submitted by shoppers.
Stocking everyday groceries for self-catering stays, Ikaros Market sits within easy reach of the main resorts and towns along Crete's northern side. Malia's position on the coastal road means Heraklion, Chania, Rethymno and Agios Nikolaos are all part of the same well-connected stretch of island. Shoppers staying in the eastern resorts of Ierapetra, Sitia and Matala travel to Malia for the same reason. The 4.8 rating from 6 reviews reflects how those visitors respond to the shop.
Opening hours run through the day for local shoppers and visitors alike.
Winter brings rain and rough seas to Crete, and many island hotels and tavernas shut between November and March, so a supermarket serving the Malia area is useful for anyone visiting outside the main season. Olives, grapes and capers grow widely on the island's rocky, terraced slopes, and dishes such as horiatiki salad, grilled octopus and thyme honey from island hills appear on menus. Ferries and high-speed catamarans connect Crete to Piraeus, Rafina and the other islands, though winter services are fewer.
