Mirabello Gulf

Mirabello Gulf
Gulf of the Aegean Sea on the northern coast of Crete, Greece.

The gulf is separated by a promontory from the Bay of Sitías on the east. Olonte and Lato are ruined classical settlements; at Gourniá and on the islets of Psíra and Mókhlos are the remains of Late Minoan (1600–1450 BC) settlements.
