Keramia or Keramies (Greek: Κεραμιά, Δήμος Κεραμιών) is a municipality in the west of the island of Crete, Greece. It is part of the Kydonia province which covers the centre of Chania Prefecture.
Keramia covers the high villages in the foothills of the White Mountains (Lefka Ori) to the south of the city of Chania. Though apparently close to Chania, the access to the villages of Keramia is by narrow winding hill roads, and hence the area is little developed or visited by tourists.
The head town of the municipality is Gerolakos. The municipality also includes Malaxa, Katohori, Kontopoula and Drakonas .
