Skaleta offers a variety of shops that you might need, such as supermarkets, taverns, cafes, souvenier and local product shops, an ATM machine, a petrol station and various other facilities. A bus stop with regular itineraries can also be found there. Also in Sfakaki and Stavromenos, which are just 5 minutes driving you will find a super market, a bakery, a butcher’s shop and a pharmacy.
