Crete Crete is a fantastic Greek island with beautiful scenery, lovely walks and a rich cultural heritage. Crete is Greece’s biggest and most spectacular island with over 1,000km of coastline and rugged countryside, where you can walk through fields of flowers, swim in a warm sea, and enjoy a good meal in a taverna - all in peace, tranquility and complete safety. In late January, after a short mild winter, the island bursts into life with a spectacular display of wild flowers: poppies, wild anemones, tulips and delicate orchids bloom among 2,000 year-old ruins. Crete has two international airports: the bigger and principal one is Heraklion and the other is Chania. Frequent charter flights link both to many European cities during high season; flights are less frequent during winter. Both airports have regular flights to/from Athens (about 50 minutes from Heraklion and 40 minutes from Chania) so connections are easily made.
