Bali (Greek: Μπαλί) is a seaside village in the Mylopotamos municipality, Rethymno regional unit, Crete, Greece. It is part of the community Melidoni. Located on the site of ancient Astale, and the harbor of Axus, in more recent times the sleepy fishing village of Bali has developed into a thriving tourist destination, with a significant rise in the number of accommodations, including hotels, apartments, and boutique resorts. The town is particularly known for its numerous spas, wellness centres, and luxury hotels that cater to tourists. As a result, tourism has become the primary driver of the local economy, with businesses ranging from restaurants and souvenir shops to water sports centres and tour companies ready to serve the influx of visitors. Bali's picturesque coves and beaches are a key attraction, and its proximity to Rethymno makes it a popular base for exploring the surrounding region. Unlike the island of Bali in Indonesia, Bali in Crete is pronounced with the emphasis on the last syllable.
