Matala is a seaside village in south Crete, near Phaistos, the second-largest Minoan Palace in Crete.
Matala became famous in the Sixties, when hippies came here from all over the world to live in the celebrated caves of Matala, next to the beach.
The night is a starry dome
and they're playin' that scratchy rock and roll
beneath the Matala Moon
This is how the Matala sky is described inJoni Mitchell’s song "Carey".
That was the time when a large group of artists, including Janice Joplin, Joan Baez and Bob Dylan, spent their days and nights under the Cretan sky, in the pretty fishing village of Matala.
When the slogan was “Peace, Man”, accompanied by the peace sign.
Today Matala is no longer what was in the Sixties and early Seventies. It’s nothing like the little village that attracted hippies who had been partying at Woodstock before coming here.
Today the Flower Children live in Matala no more, having given their place to thousands of tourists from all over the world, who come here to see a legendary place and get a taste of past glamour.
