By airplane, Hania airport ...
The airport of Hania is located in Acrotiri, 15 km from the town of Hania. Every day there are 3-4 internal flights (approx. 40 min). During the summer period Hania is connected to many places abroad through charter flights.

By boat, Souda bay...
Souda bay, 7 km from the town of Hania, is daily connected by boat to Piraeus (approx. 10 hours). During the summertime both night and day crossings take place, while in the wintertime only night crossings. Furthermore, on certain days one could take the boat from Kasteli (40 km from Hania) to Peloponnese.

By bus...
The intercity bus service (KTEL) runs several buses daily connecting Hania with Rethymno and Heraklion. Also, several times a week one could travel to Thessaloniki by bus (the bus leaves the bus-station to Souda bay, then by boat to Piraeus, and finally by the same bus to Thessaloniki).
