  • Crete Island Vacations

    Perhaps it's the food, maybe it's the ambiance, or maybe it's just that the island of Crete truly does possess some magical quality. Whatever the cause may be, all who visit the island of Crete fall in love with this esoteric destination and never want to leave.

    Crete, the largest and southernmost of the Greek islands, exudes a mysteriously soothing atmosphere, exclusive to this particular destination among the many Greek Islands. Despite the locals deeply-earthed loyalty to Greece, those who inhabit Crete, as well as all who visit, know that there is something that makes this island different, something that causes a sense of pride and warmth to exude from its citizens. Visitors to Crete can sense this immediately, as, upon arrival, they feel genuinely welcome.

    Crete is composed of four main counties: Chania, Rethymno, Heraklion and Lasithi, and within each of these, the historically fascinating remains of previous inhabitants can be found, which date back thousands of years.

    Crete's menu is primarily based on olive oil, as one could quickly deduce by the plethora of olive groves found on the island. Cheeses and wines hailing from Crete are also worth a try. It is also highly likely you will find yourself sampling Raki, a famous drink that can be customarily drunk at frequent intervals during the day.

    As for destinations within the island of Crete, one must merely ask, and expect to arrive at an incredible destination far surpassing all expectations. Searching for a beach? Crete's coast is at your service, offering the utmost in gorgeous scenery to absorb, warm velvety water to snorkel and dive in, and spectacular, toasty sunshine to top it all off. Looking for adventure? Either remain on the coast to enjoy Crete's endless supply of water sports, or trek inward along the E4 hiking trails from Kastelli to Zakro to witness firsthand, Crete's more secret side: ancient paths and settlements, gorgeous monasteries and, of course, those mountains!!!
