Kaina (Old Kaina) Kaina is located at an altitude of about 300 meters, 27 km from Chania, and is a community in the Apokoronas region. The name is derived from the ancient toponym Kaino or Kainos, mentioned by the historian Diodorus Siculus, and according to tradition, it is the birthplace of Britomartis Diktynna. The modern village of Kaina was built during the Ottoman era and is also known as “Old Kaina.” The village features traditional architecture with buildings reflecting Venetian and Ottoman heritage. The area is predominantly agricultural and pastoral, with crops such as olives, vineyards, oats, wheat, barley, and broad beans. Locals are mainly engaged in farming and livestock breeding, with some small-scale cultivation of vegetables and fruit trees. If you’re in the area, it’s well worth visiting both villages to experience authentic Cretan hospitality, traditional architecture, and the peaceful charm of the countryside.
