Crete Travel Blog
Crete is the largest and most diverse greek island. Crete is the same size as Hawaii’s big island so there is a ton of options when it comes to accommodation, things to do, places to stay, tours and restaurants. If you are planning to visit Crete then the best thing I could advise you is to spend at least a week on the island so you’ll get the opportunity to explore as many areas as possible. If you only have a few days to spend in Crete then you should visit western Crete or Chania area, as it is the place with the most famous beaches (Elafonisi, Falasarna etc) and the most picturesque town of the island (Chania old town).
