Amazing Things to Do in Crete & Top Crete Attractions

Discover with us the most amazing things to do in Crete & Top Crete attractions. Start your Crete trip by exploring the picturesque town of Chania which is a magnet for guests from around the world. Enjoy its old Venetian harbor, colorful architecture, and impressive panorama views. You will fall in love with its old romantic cobblestone streets and relaxed, friendly atmosphere.
You cannot overlook the Venetian lighthouse located at the end of a long mole that protects the harbor from the sea. It is worth walking all the way to it as it offers sensational views.
The best beaches are Preveli which is located in front of a small lake right where the river flows into the sea, white-sand Balos beach famous for its warm crystal-clear turquoise waters and the spectacular exotic scenery and Elafonisi beach which belongs to the most beautiful beaches in the world. This paradise-like beach is extremely popular with tourists thanks to its rare pink sand.
The most famous landmark of Crete, the largest Greek island, is the Palace of Knosos - the ceremonial and political center of the Bronze Age Minoan Civilization which occupied this place until around 1300 BC. When you visit the palace, pay attention to the red-painted Minoan columns. Unlike Greek columns made of stone, these are made of cypres-trees. In the Throne Room you can admire an alabaster seat surrounded with 3 gypsum benches, and when you visit Queen's Megaron room, you will see a beautiful Dolphin Fresco which is a masterpiece of Minoan painting.
