There are three different beaches in Agioi Apostoloi, each one situated in its own small bay.[1]

The village of Agioi Apostoloi is also known for its sardine feast.Шаблон:Citation needed During the feast, many locals and tourists gather here to freely taste the grilled sardines, drink raki or tsikoudia, and listen to traditional Cretan music.

The waterfront of the Agioi Apostoloi (the park included) is under preservation by the authorities, therefore there is still some green space next to the sea.Шаблон:Citation needed The local flora consists of many Pine, Nerium oleander, Palmaes and Eucalyptus trees. Sea Daffodil, a rare and protected species with large, delicate, white flowers and a strong scent, also grows in the area.[2]

Environmental educational projects take place throughout the year, particularly regarding the Loggerhead sea turtles that use the coastline to breed.[2]

In the past few years there has been discussion in the local community about whether Agii Apostoli should be protected from any kind of tourist development.[3]
