Crete

Welcome to Crete

It’s not just its history that makes Crete one of the most visited destinations in Greece. Crete has many natural faces to its landscape ranging including steep mountain gorges to snowcapped peaks, lush vineyards, olive groves and miles of beaches that fringe the island’s perimeter. Crete has two major airports Heraklion Airport N. Kazantzakis and Chania Airport I. Daskalogiannis

Top Crete Attractions

Visit Heraklion (Iraklion) is the island’s capital and the obvious base for visiting Knossos and exploring central Crete.

Chania (Hania, Khania) is the main town in Western Crete, and was the capital of the island until 1971 when it moved to Heraklion. Overlooking the Aegean Sea and backed by the White Mountains, which are snow-capped in winter, the old town’s appearance dates from the centuries spent under Venice (1204-1645). Chania is a lovely place to explore on foot. A warren of romantic alleys with pastel-colored buildings enclosed within the remains of 16th-century defensive walls, the town extends to a pretty fishing harbor.

Midway between Chania and Heraklion, Rethymnon’s lovely old town is made up largely of Venetian-era buildings, though there is some evidence of the year spent under Turkish rule (1669-1898) such as the towering minaret. Many historic buildings have been turned into small boutique hotels, shops, and tavernas, and the long, narrow, sandy beach east of the old town makes it easy to combine cultural sightseeing with a few hours of swimming and sunbathing.

Along the north coast of eastern Crete, about 65 kilometers east of Heraklion, Áyios Nikólaos (Agios Nikolaos) is home to Crete’s most popular modern resorts. Near Áyios Nikólao, you can also visit the Diktean Cave with its stalactites and stalagmites or venture into the mountains to the the charming village of Kritsa where local artisans sell traditional crafts such as leather goods, ceramics, and hand-woven rugs.
