Crete

in collaboration with Destination Crete

Photo:

Crete, the largest Greek island, is washed by the waters of the eastern
Mediterranean, and so enjoys a mild climate. An island where Myth meets
History, where the age-old Cretan culture has its roots in the long-ago, where the
sea meets the mountains and unspoiled nature coexists with modern tourist
infrastructure. Crete has a thousand faces: one for each and every sort of
traveller: the naturalist, the explorer, the cosmopolitan, the lover of history and
culture. The list is long and all-encompassing!
