Kandanos - Selino is a comparatively large region which extends, roughly speaking, from the west coast of Crete to the western foothills of the White Mountains. Its northern part starts at the north-south water dividing line of the hills and it ends on the shores of the Libyan sea to the south.

It is a fertile hilly region and its main products are olives and grapes on the southern hills of central Selino. Nowadays there are also some important greenhouse plantations near Paleochora.
