A Guide to Crete
Fresh form a week there, here is my address book: where to sightsee, swim, eat and sleep...and where not to. My Google Map included at the end of the article!
The largest and most populated of the Greek islands, Crete can cater to many needs – from families who are looking for a relaxing holiday to hike aficionados to those (like us) in between.
If you know me, you know I am a planner, especially when it comes to holidays. I might not be the super adventurous type, but when I visit a new destination I can’t sit still in one place for more than two days for fear of missing out. And with only 8 days to spend on the island and so much to see, I put a lot of research into trying to make every day count.
At the end of the article, I’ll be sharing the link to my personalised Google Map, which – as you can see – is filled to the bream with all the places mentioned in this article (and more).
