Saltire Lounge
About
Saltire Lounge in Crete occupies Dimokratias 80, Malia 700 07, Greece, on the island's northern resort strip. Malia lies east of Heraklion, within reach of Chania, Rethymno and Agios Nikolaos by road. Saltire Lounge operates as a bar in Malia, drawing visitors through the summer season.
The bar is known for a 4.2/5 rating across 114 reviews, a steady record among drinking spots along this stretch of coast. First-time visitors should expect an evening crowd rather than a quiet local taverna, with the busiest nights falling in the warmest months. Visitors based in Heraklion can reach Malia in the same evening, and those staying in Agios Nikolaos or Ierapetra can travel west along the coast.
Saltire Lounge sits on Dimokratias, one of the main streets running through Malia's resort area.
On Crete, Greek is the main language, written in the Greek alphabet, which also appears on road signs and menus. Winter brings rain and rough seas, and many island hotels and tavernas shut between November and March. Ferries and high-speed catamarans connect the islands to Piraeus, Rafina and each other, though winter services are fewer.
