	Crete Food and Wine
	Our favourite part of any Greek island! Crete Food and Wine


	Crete Overview
	The beautiful island of Crete is a combination of cities, large tourist resorts, small fishing villages, dramatic landscapes and remote settlements. Rugged mountains, vineyards, citrus groves and forgotten ruins. The coastline offers many wonderful sandy beaches. Sea and sun, culture and traditions, the peaceful seaside and masses of history await. However, one of the most noticeable aspect of the island, is the islanders. Shaped by centuries of struggle against oppression, they are as rugged as the mountains, very independent and passionately loyal to their island and each other. Crete Overview
