The Crete region

The most southerly island of Europe and the largest in Greece, Crete enjoys one of the best climates in Europe with more than 300 days of sunshine every year, and sea temperatures that allow swimming from its southern shores as early as April and as late as November.

The people are hospitable and friendly. The scenery is spectacular with rugged limestone mountains rising steeply, and azure seas off rocky coasts. Carved into this landscape are idyllic coves and beaches. And there is a rich history and culture to be discovered with archaeological sites spread across the island.

Makrigialos area

Situated in the south east of Crete, Makrigialos, (meaning long beach and awarded the blue flag), is an unspoilt resort with a particular attraction for those looking for an authentic flavour of Cretan life. The evenings come alive with numerous tavernas and bars serving delicious food from local produce with the fish dishes particularly recommended. Fridays see the village hosting a street market.

Daily boat trips to Lefki or Koufonisia run from the harbour. Makrigialos is well known for hosting the prestigious Casa Dei Mezzo music festival with musicians coming from all over the world. The nearby village of Agios Stefanos is home to the Sasteria public observatory with 4 telescopes at your disposal for you to observe the heavens.

Close by are the towns of Lerapetra and Sitia, both good for shopping, and the latter with a particularly lovely marina. The drive to Sitia through the mountains beautifully illustrates by remote monasteries, quaint churches, beehives on hillsides and lovely villages what is so attractive about this area.

Within 15 minutes drive of Makrigialos is the village of Pefki, one of the many beautiful mountain villages, steeped in history, with narrow winding streets, and beautifully stone houses covered in geraniums, bougainvillea, and vines and dotted with rustic tavernas serving traditional Greek food. Well worth a Sunday evening visit!

A wide range of water sports are available including scuba diving, fishing, sailing etc. There is also a Go-Kart centre within 20 minutes drive.

How to get there

Fly direct to Heraklion Airport from most UK and European airports.

ThomasCook, Easyjet, Monarch, Jet2 and Thomson offer regular services. Tuifly are currently operating a direct service from Hamburg to Sitia.
