About

Found on Crete, Zig Zag is a nightclub at Dimokratias 101, Malia 700 07, Greece, on the island's northern coast east of Heraklion. The club sits in Malia, a resort area within reach of Heraklion, Chania, Rethymno, Agios Nikolaos, Ierapetra and Sitia by road. Malia's position on the north coast makes the club reachable from the main towns for a night out. Zig Zag holds a 3.9/5 rating from 202 reviews, a substantial record of visitor feedback. Its website at http://www.zigzagclub.gr/ is the club's online presence. The club operates as a nightclub in Malia's resort strip.

Greek is the main language, written in the Greek alphabet, which also appears on road signs and menus. Greek island cooking centres on seafood, olive oil, feta and other local cheeses, and grilled meats. The meltemi, a strong northerly wind, blows across the Aegean in summer and can delay ferries.

Malia draws its crowds in the summer months, when the north coast resorts fill and the club's 202 reviews reflect a steady stream of visitors. Heraklion, the island's main city, lies to the west along the same coast, while Chania and Rethymno sit further west still. Agios Nikolaos, Ierapetra and Sitia stretch east, each reachable by road from Malia.

The club's reputation rests on its 3.9/5 rating from 202 reviews, a figure that places it among the better-known nightlife spots in the area. Its website at http://www.zigzagclub.gr/ gives a sense of what the club offers before a visit. For those staying in Malia, the club is within walking distance of the resort's main strip. Matala and Elafonisi lie further south and west, offering quieter alternatives by day.
