The name Candia can refer to:

  • The old Venetian name of ancient Herakleion (Latinized Heracleion), present Iraklion, refounded by Arabs under the name Khandak;
  • while it was its capital, also used as alternative name for the whole island of Crete, again under Ottoman rule in the Turkish spelling Kandia
