Getting to Know Crete
Crete's size changes the usual Greek island trip. Its Minoan sites, mountain landscapes and distinct towns call for choices about where to base yourself.
Santorini / Your next move
Bring this chapter to life.
Keep exploring Santorini with our travel partners.
Heraklion is the main urban gateway to Knossos and the island's archaeological collections. The White Mountains and gorges pull walkers west, while inland plateaus and the Libyan Sea coast show how far Crete extends beyond its northern cities. Local music and poetry add another thread to its history.
Useful to know
Choose sights within one part of the island before adding a long cross-island transfer.
