Thomsons Holidays - Crete

Crete Crete, the largest Greek island, is steeped in culture and history. The home to Zeus and the cradle of European civilisation, visitors here are following in the footsteps of legends. The rugged coast and snow capped mountains that stand imperiously inland only add to Crete’s mystic aura.

Crete has some fantastic coastal scenery ranging from rugged inlets sheltering beneath cliffs that jut out towards the sea to long sweeps of golden sand. The three bays at Hersonissos are pretty if a little too popular. The quiet life is never far away though if you are willing to do some exploring of your own. The large crescent of Chania Bay and the swathe of golden sand at Malia will tempt those who enjoy their beaches wide and long. You will also find various watersports from wind-surfing to scuba-diving here.
