Crete is an island rich with history, mystery and natural beauty. Archaeology, mythology and natural wonders abound on Crete, the largest island in Greece. There is so much to see and discover in each of the four prefectures of the island that, whether you’re a history buff, a nature lover or an avid hiker, you won’t have an empty afternoon – unless you want to, of course. The best part is that whatever you’re doing, you’re never far from a beach.
