Crete

#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck The hospitable and sunny island of Crete is one of the most sought-after beach destinations in the Mediterranean. Tourists are waiting for the best beaches in the island's beautiful bays, crystal-clear seas and the historical relics of Heraklion, Agios Nikolaos and Rethymno. The first civilizations emerged on Crete thousands of years before our advent. Many historical monuments have been passed down to us over the centuries. Today, guests of the island have the opportunity to explore the mysterious labyrinths of the Palace of Knossos, admire the impregnable Venetian fortifications or see the ruins of an ancient city. The swimming season in Crete lasts from late May to late October. Winter is an ideal time to visit, as even in January daytime temperatures rarely drop below 15°C.

Knossos Palace

Located οn the southern side of the Aegean Sea, Crete is the biggest of all Greek islands. Its beauty, though, is even bigger than its size! Let us paint the scene: Just imagine enthralling natural beauty meeting rich culture and worldwide famous gastronomy, to create the most dreamy holiday paradise! The island is separated in 4 prefectures: Heraklion, Chania, Rethymno, and Lassithi. The mythical Crete island is one of the most popular Greek destinations, thanks to its unreal Crete beaches, its amazing historical sites, such as Knossos Palace and Spinalonga islet and its mesmerizing natural landscapes. Not to mention Chania town and Heraklion town some of the biggest towns in Crete, which boast a magnificent medieval architecture. Honestly, wandering around their warren of romantic alleys will make you feel as if you’ve traveled back in time! Crete Greece is, hands down, one of the most magical Greek islands! #mynovgetaway #mynovgetaway
