Schinokapsala

Schinokapsala

Schinokapsala is a small village in Lasithi prefecture on Crete. It is situated 21 kilometers north-east from Ierapetra and 6 from the sea (from the Galini-Aghia Fotia settlements). Today it belongs to Makrys Gialos municipality.

It is built 400 meters above sea level, south of Thripti mountain, in a verdant area, full of pine and olive trees. Today it is almost deserted (population of 2001 census less than 200), as the majority of the people have moved to the beach and to Ierapetra in the last 3 decades.
