The island of Crete - GreeceGuide.co.uk

Crete is without doubt, the most popular Greek holiday island. It is the largest Greek island and the fifth largest in the Mediterranean (after Sicily, Sardinia, Corsica and Cyprus). Crete is an elongated island with a length of 260 km (161miles) The width varies from 60 kilometers (37 miles) in the center of the island, to 12 kilometers (7 miles) from Mirambello Bay to Ierapetra town. The island has a total area of over 8300 km2 (5157 miles). Crete is absolutely one of our favourite islands, This is because it’s where Yorgos comes from and the fact that we (Yorgos and Wendy, the creators of GreeceGuide.co.uk) have lived and worked for many years on this beautiful island. We have explored every corner of the island, we have been to the remotest mountain villages, the still undiscovered beaches, the major tourist locations and the bustling ports; We have visited and admired almost all of them. What we like most about Crete is the welcoming and very friendly people. The Cretan hospitality is second to none!!! Cretans make every tourist feel at home. Because of the fact that we know Crete like no other, we can be your 'guide', sharing with you our knowledge and experiences, helping you to discover Crete on these pages, so that you can enjoy your holiday in Crete.
