The history of Georgioupolis dates back to antiquity, when the region was settled by the Minoans and later by the Romans. However, the present town was only founded in the late 19th century and named after Prince George of Greece, who was High Commissioner of Crete at the time. Originally a small fishing village, Georgioupolis began to develop as a tourist destination in the 1960s, thanks to its idyllic location and the natural beauty of the surrounding area.
