Crete Heraklion

Several hundred years before settlements appeared in any other European area, Crete had a thriving Minoan civilization that left behind impressive traces of their existence. Palaces built by this long ago population still attract a great number of archaeological enthusiasts.

Many of the temples from the period can also be viewed. Begin your journey to this Greek isle in the capital city of Iraklion . Easily accessible by air or sea, Crete has an open and easy connection to many major cities such as Athens .

While on this charming island, plan a visit Knossos to visit spectacular Venetian castles. The mountainous region of Lassithi plateau is beautiful to see as well as the sparkling beaches of Agios Sosti.

On a beautiful bay between the uninhabited peninsula of Gramvousa and Rodopou you'll find the town of Kissamos. Find the perfect sunset as you continue west and travel over majestic mountains that lead to dreamlike beaches of clear seas and fine sand.

When you head south, you'll be mesmerized by the beauty of the high mountain route that winds you through sparse greenery and onward to fields of grazing goats. While many goats are kept by locals, some are wild and roam freely. Look up into the sky and you may spot vultures circling high above.

Take the time to make your way to the south-western tip of Crete and splash around in the tempting waters of Elafonsisi Island .
