About Crete
Crete is Greece’s largest island and it works better as a multi-base trip than a simple city break. You’ll usually plan around four travel regions: Chania, Rethymno, Heraklion and Lasithi. A classic first trip pairs Heraklion and Knossos with Chania or Rethymno’s old towns, then adds beaches such as Elafonisi, Balos, Preveli or Elounda depending on whether you want wilder scenery, resorts or a more polished seafront stay.
